Charles Durning ..... Dead at 89
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

Here he is "Dancing a Little Side Step" from The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.  It's one of my all time favorite movies.  ;D

Yessir!!

That's the movie where I really learned to appreciate Charles Durning.

Dom DeLuise is in that clip as well.  He also did a great job in that movie.

Doctors in Houston, Texas say former president George H.W. Bush's condition has worsened.

The 88-year-old Mr. Bush is in a hospital battling what doctors call a "stubborn fever." The former president entered the hospital last month with a severe cough.

A Bush family spokesman says he is in "guarded" condition.

Mr. Bush served one term as U.S. president from 1989 until 1993, after spending eight years as Ronald Reagan's vice president. He led the international coalition that drove Iraqi forces out of Kuwait in 1991.

He is the father of the 43rd president, George W. Bush.

Doctors are 'cautiously optimistic' about his condition....Not sure if that is a good sign or not...but, he is a tough ol bird.

Yeah, if he can recover from this, maybe he'll jump out of another airplane for his 90th birthday.  I wouldn't put it past him.

Interesting that we were talking about Bush today and now Schwarzkopf croaks first.

Isn't he the guy who used to play in a lot of John Wayne Movies?  If so, I thought he died YEARS ago......

According to some newspaper articles I read this morning, he did star alongside John Wayne.
