Wit and Wisdom from Larry King Wit and Wisdom From Larry King By Jason Gay, The Wall Street Journal, 9/9 On Wednesday, CNN announced that early next year, British personality Piers Morgan will replace Larry King in Mr. King's 9 p.m. time slot. In tribute, here is an unworthy homage to Mr. King's late, beloved USA Today column: Regrets? Sure. I never saw Stephen Strasburg pitch, but I did see "G-Force," twice…Why is Rex Ryan imitating Redd Foxx?...I'm taping the entire U.S. Open on the Betamax, so if Tracy Austin's been bounced, don't spoil it…My favorite tennis player of all time? Pancho Gonzales. Second favorite: Charlie Chaplin. Third: Kate Jackson. Did New Orleans really win the Super Bowl, or was Tom Clancy yanking my chain at Dan Tana's?...I would have given Ben Roethlisberger five games and five minutes in an alley with Jack Ham…Tom Brady could pull off the Beatty part in a remake of ''Shampoo''…People give Brady a hard time about the hairdo, but friends, that's a small price to pay for waking up every morning next to Cheryl Tiegs. What's wrong with Tiger Woods? Who cares? My summer interns have all gone back to college, and I have an office freezer full of Fla-Vor-Ice… Reggie Bush will give back the Heisman as soon as Kevin Costner returns his statue for "Dances with Wolves"…Like I have time to follow a Dodger divorce…I wish I sounded like Colin Cowherd and looked like Marat Safin… CC Sabathia sounds like the name of a children's restaurant…I always thought Kelsey Grammer would make a great Batman…Make sure Darrelle Revis stays away from Len Dykstra…Tell Jim Gray to simmer down. Brent Musburger has the energy of a 21-year-old and the cologne of a shipping magnate… If you see Lyle Lovett, have him phone me…LeBron doesn't need to "take his talents" to South Beach. The only thing you need in that town is coconut oil and the number for Joe's Stone Crab…Is hockey still on TV?... ''Dancing With the Stars'' is neither.…If you're stumped on a Halloween costume, nobody ever went wrong dressing up as Phyllis George or 1 / 2 Wit and Wisdom From Larry King Zombie Lou Piniella...Airplanes are underrated. Nothing makes me more melancholy than 30 minutes of ESPN News in a dimly lit room… Boise State is for kids…I want to see Bobby Cox win another World Series and Tony Danza in a tentpole summer comedy…Where did Bruce Jenner get all those girls?...There's nothing wrong with the Knicks that Doug Moe couldn't solve…Every year Bill Walton invites me to Burning Man, and every year I say I have a doctor's appointment. Why? Conan will be great on cable…Did Bobby Vinton ever do a halftime show?...I talk for 10 minutes every morning on the phone with Joe Paterno, and then for 10 more with Olga Korbut…Don't count out LaDainian Tomlinson, or Sharon Stone…Tim Tebow could start tomorrow—in the William Morris mailroom. I'm not watching the NFL on Thursday, that's my Yahtzee night…Ted Turner makes Mark Cuban look like Dennis the Menace…A Jim Leyland biopic? Absolutely—let's make it happen…Is South Africa ready for the World Cup?...I miss The Boss, he was one in a billion…Now I understand how Jordan felt about Kukoc...Someone tell the Vikings that this old dog can still play a few quarters, too. 2 / 2.

  • David Hume Kennerly Archive Project
    DAVID HUME KENNERLY ARCHIVE PROJECT 50 YEARS BEHIND THE SCENES OF HISTORY The David Hume Kennerly Archive is an extraordinary collection of images, objects and recollections created and collected by a great American photographer, journalist, artist and historian documenting 50 years of United States and world history. The goal of the DAVID HUME KENNERLY ARCHIVE PROJECT is to protect, organize and share its rare and historic objects – and to transform its half-century of images into a cutting- edge digital educational tool that is fully searchable and available to the public for research and artistic appreciation. 2 DAVID HUME KENNERLY Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist David Hume Kennerly has spent his career documenting the people and events that have defined the world. The last photographer hired by Life Magazine, he has also worked for Time, People, Newsweek, Paris Match, Der Spiegel, Politico, ABC, NBC, CNN and served as Chief White House Photographer for President Gerald R. Ford. Kennerly’s images convey a deep understanding of the forces shaping history and are a peerless repository of exclusive primary source records that will help educate future generations. His collection comprises a sweeping record of a half-century of history and culture – as if Margaret Bourke-White had continued her work through the present day. 3 HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE The David Hume Kennerly collection of photography, historic artifacts, letters and objects might be one of the largest and most historically significant private collections ever produced and collected by a single individual. Its 50-year span of images and objects tells the complete story of the baby boom generation.

  • This Is a Test
    ‘LOVE’S EVERLASTING COURAGE’ CAST BIOS CHERYL LADD (Irene) – Possessing an effervescent personality and embodying the beauty, grace, class and charm of old Hollywood, its no wonder Cheryl Ladd remains one of Tinseltown’s favorite actresses. Since her big break as one of the beloved “Charlie’s Angels,” Ladd’s career has traversed television, film and Broadway, and she is still very much a triple- threat. On primetime, Ladd most recently appeared on the CBS hit show “CSI: Miami.” The actress played a socialite involved with younger men who were murdered by her jealous husband. Prior to that, Ladd had a recurring role on the NBC drama “Las Vegas” playing Jillian Deline, the loving wife of James Caan and mother to vixen Molly Sims. Born and raised in Huron, South Dakota, Ladd spent her childhood focused on singing, dancing and acting. While in high school, Ladd sang with a local group called "The Music Shop," which brought her to Los Angeles after graduation. In just a short time, Ladd got her first break as the singing voice of Melody on the cartoon series, "Josie and the Pussycats." Armed with talent and perseverance, Ladd quickly added a string of significant credits to her resume, including the comedy/variety series, "The Ken Berry WOW Show," with Steve Martin and Teri Garr. Then, Ladd was cast in the role of Kris Munroe on "Charlie's Angels" and was instantly catapulted into stardom, spending four years on the show. While still on the series, she developed and starred in the ABC telefilm, “When She Was Bad," which dealt with the harsh realities of child abuse.
