Jay Leno has an incredible car collection, Westgrand. He has a show called "Jay Leno's Garage."
Carolyn Jones ......Morticia Adams in "The Addams Family." How in the world could she walk with that outfit?
The sad part about Carolyn Jones is that she died so young [[53) from Colon Cancer. It's a shame colonoscopies weren't then what they are now [[everyone over 50 & there's some talk of lowering the age to start at 45):[[
Sounds like he considers them as works of art....
He's very passionate about cars......as is Jerry Seinfeld. Jerry [I don't know if he still does] collects Porsches.
I'm not into cars....so tend to feel that just one Porsche would seem quite sufficient.

Geez, Willie Nelson is 88!!!!!! With all that hard living [& he's still here] that is something to be celebrated! Not to mention his battle with the IRS over taxes.
And how terrible about Tammi Terrell - Can you imagine her career if not cut short by the brain tumor??
No. I think he released a double album with the proceeds settling the issue with the IRS.
And am I correct in assuming there are no original Coasters performing?
