Bea Arthur, SSSD back again.

G'day Everyone.

Sad news. Beatrice "Bea" Arthur has passed on from our lives. It was reported that she passed away last night. Link: http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/04/25/bea.arthur.obit/index.html
She will be missed in our lives. Her career started when I saw her on the "All in the Family" show. When it came to "Maude" (I loved that sound track of the show), she was all bossy and sarcastic woman for what she wanted to be. When "Golden Girls" show came on the air, she was the sensitive yet caring woman that lived with her 3 roommates.
Life will not be the same, save for the reprises that happen on TVland and Hallmark channels.
Bea, thank you for your entertainment of us. Words can't describe it. May God grant you an eternity of rest and peace.

Meanwhile: There's news about the Scranton State School for the Deaf (SSSD). Yes, the issue is STILL alive. Here's what I've found out.
Link:http://www.sssdsos.org/index.htm You have to read through the site to see some of the issues going on.
One issue is very important. The parents of SSSD students have recently filed a LAWSUIT in hopes to stop the closure of SSSD: http://pahomepage.com/common/printerfriendly.php?cid=80451
On Wednesday, April 29th, 2009, there will be a major press conference happening at the capital rotunda at 8AM to 10AM. SSSD supporters should wear shirts and bring signs. SUPPORT SSSD! Tell our Governor of PA: ED RENDELL NOT TO CLOSE SSSD! The fight is still on!

As summer like weather is floating around in several states, so does severe weather as well. So pay attention out there and enjoy the weather. It's strange that it's early this year, but just be thankful for it.

Till laters, semper FI.

Deaf Sherlock,

I always had hots for this strong-willed lady.

I was supposed to see Bea Arthur on the live stage few years ago in Washington, DC, but never had a chance.

I want to view "Maude" tv shows on DVD real soon. The Maude DVDs better contains CC.

I still love the Betty White character.

The Blanche character, too That actress got real older much faster than I anticipated.

Guess what? I am in Miami right now. The city of Miami is very saddened about Bea Arthur which we called this show "Miami Nice' as compared to the violent Miami Vice (really embrassement for us, Miamians).

We should grab and squeeze Gov. Rendell's balls pretty hard until his face get blue!

RLM,

I do not advocate violence against PA Gov. Ed Rendell. I would rather that you support the lawsuit against him and against PA Department of Education.

Thank you.

Sherlock Steve.

RLM:

I know.. but when you said and I quote "We should grab and squeeze Gov. Rendell's balls pretty hard until his face get blue!", meaning you better choose your words carefully as I have to do the same for me.

as I repeat: No violence against Gov. Rendell. Support the lawsuit! SSSD must stay open!
