Please. She'd have to bring a six-pack if she came over. Oh, never mind . . . I was thinking of someone else.

She looked so terrific and strong for such a long time that it was easy to imagine Lauren Bacall might just hang around forever. And who wouldn’t want her to, for the pleasure of hearing her firing off smart, unvarnished remarks about old Hollywood in that husky voice? But the end came at last on Tuesday, when the 89-year-old actress died from a stroke at her home, according to a report on TMZ.

She’s #2. They always die in threes. But WHO will it be?
First time I saw Key Largo, I fell in love.
She campaigned for Democratic candidate Adlai Stevenson in the 1952 Presidential election and for Robert Kennedy in his 1964 run for Senate. In a 2005 interview with Larry King, Bacall described herself as “anti-Republican... A liberal. The L-word.” She went on to say that “being a liberal is the best thing on earth you can be. You are welcoming to everyone when you’re a liberal. You do not have a small mind.”[32]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauren_Bacall
Now this is a big deal.
JJ Murphy who played Ser Denys Mallister of “Game of Thrones” on Friday, Robin Williams yesterday, and Lauren Bacall today.
I guess that settles it, then. She was not a good actress, or attractive for that matter.
That’s what I just said to Mr. GG2. I wonder who Number 3 will be.
She is # 3, the first was: JJ Murphy who played Ser Denys Mallister of “Game of Thrones” on Friday
I could not stand her. Just something about her that irritated me. Maybe it was her liberal politics but I think it was something else.
My guess is Carol Burnett or Mary Tyler Moore.
One of the great classic actors.
A much bigger star than Robin Williams. I say that, and I was born in 1960, so in many ways she’s “before my time” while Mork & Mindy hit when I was a teenager. Still, I think she was more signifiant.
From the golden age of Hollywood. Bogart and Bacall
I saw her in a cameo in the Sopranos a few years back, she was still good.
They are almost all gone now.
RIP.
Didn’t Bogey say she was the sexiest broad in Hollywood?
Mrs p6 is saying some reports claim it’s a hoax. Most say it’s real. Bogey died in ‘57....just sayin’
Well, sure, if you keep re-starting the count after every third one, then folks always die in threes.
Uh, I thought this person died in the 60s or something.
I only knew her from references made in Bugs Bunny cartoons, so I assumed she was a star in the 40s.
Never heard of him. It has to be a BIGGER name.
Maureen O’Hara is still with us, God bless her!
Please. She'd have to bring a six-pack if she came over. Oh, never mind . . . I was thinking of someone else.
