Watching Dick Clark is painful

[Herman Munster]

His speech is all slurred.

[lizziegrace]

1. He's made remarkable progress since his stroke

but it's just not the same. :(

[ironflange]

2. Give the guy credit

It takes a lotta guts to get up there after what he's been through. Same goes for Kirk Douglas.

[ContraBass Black]

3. Didn't I see this exact post a year ago?

[TOhioLiberal]

4. He sounds better than last year...n/t

[ronnykmarshall]

5. But give the guy credit ...

He's still with us and we love him!!!

:loveya:

6. But did he have The Scissor Sisters, like Anderson Cooper? nt

[ronnykmarshall]

7. Hello???

I'm watching Anderson as well. I love the Sisters!!! That lead singer .... mmmmmmm ...MMMM! He is FINE!

[babylonsister]

8. Happy New Years to you; you're on the west coast, right?

So you have hours to party! And I love the Sisters, too; hell, I am one! :D

[ronnykmarshall]

9. yeah ...

We're gonna hang in there a few more hours.





mmmmmmm Jake Shears .........

10. Enjoy! I think of you every time I look at my

license plates, btw. ;-)
Day-um. He is hot. What did you think of Freddy Mercury? I thought he was "HOT". His talent superseded anything else, and always will; no one has captured me like he and their music did, and I'm going back a long way.

11. Freddy was a HUNK.

And he had a fantastic voice.

[Pretty Go Pale]

12. He's no Maynard

My alltime hero.

[babylonsister]

13. No image there. Do you mean Maynard Ferguson?nt

[Pretty Go Pale]

14. Hmmmm.

I can see the image, but maybe I'm being deceived. No -- the image was that of Maynard James Keenan -- Tool's lead singer.

Here's a link to some pics. I especially like his geisha look with the white face make-up and long ponytail.

19. No, he meant Maynard

[MonkeyFunk]

15. What

station is Anderson on?

[huskerlaw]

18. OMG

did you go to the SS concert at the Shrine a few months ago?

I ended up front row, center.

The lead singer IS a hottie. Sigh.

16. He's made huge strides from last year.

Last year was difficult to watch- he was barely intelligible. Still, though- it's incredible he's still at it all these years.

[Reverend_Smitty]

17. It was kind of sad...

He was still kind of slurring his speech and was certainly not the Dick Clark of old...which in that respect kind of made watching "New Year's Rockin' Eve" kind of depressing but he definitely is better than last year. I was talking to my college roommate shortly after midnight and she told me she had to turn it off because it was kind of bumming her out. I stuck it out strictly because it was tradition.
