chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Speaking of waltzing, or, well no matter! Cloris Leachmon is still on Dancing With The Stars and she is actually a competitor especially for her age and being up against all those youngsters. Why shouldn't she win the prize??? She already dances better than Susan Lucci, whom I like, but she dances like she has something stuck up somewhere it shouldn't be. Get my meaning? _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I'm watching that some...it's hard to believe that someone 82 is doing as much as she is. Now she takes it over the top with her silliness sometimes, but you have to love her. I like the big guy who did the hustle this week. He really came out of his shell, didn't he? He nailed it. I was so happy for him! Who got sent home? Was it Susan Lucci? She did have an injured ankle, so I felt bad about that, but to me, she's never done very well anyway. _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

Cookie Member Registered: 06/02/06 Posts: 753 Loc: USA	Toni Braxton got sent home. I agree Chatty, Susan isn't enjoyable to watch when it comes to dancing. And that smile....it looks fake.

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	It's probably the result of too much plastic surgery...she can't move her lips. They're permanently in a smile. My Lord...she must be 101...I can remember watching her when I was in high school and I'm old. _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

Cookie Member Registered: 06/02/06 Posts: 753 Loc: USA	I think she (Susan lucci) said she was 62. But if you ask me, and no one did, but I'll tell ya anyway ... she looks a bit like a skelton. Goodness, she needs to eat a sandwich!

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	I remember learning Waltzing Matilda in grade school gym class. But, I had no idea it was the Australian Anthem and had such a deep meaning. I also learned something today via that video. I love Dancing with the Stars. I agree. Susan Lucci looks a bit fake. Don't know why. But Cloris is a trip. I love her. My gosh, if I'm moving at 82 I'll be happy, say nothing about lifting my leg desktop high.

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Anne327, Sorry it didn't work for you. It was really quite interesting. Perhaps another day it will play. That happens sometimes. One day something won't jive and the next day it will. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Princess Lenora Member Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 3503 Loc: Colorado	Oh, how I loved that song in 3rd grade. My mom had just acquired my new stepfather, who is British, and spend some of his youth in Australia. I think I heard the song at school, and came home asking him about it, and he was familiar with it. However, his interpretation was that Waltzing Matilda was a ghost of a lost lady. Soon after, the Beatles ruled my day, and She Loves You yeah yeah yeah consumed my head. Thanks for the memory on Waltzing Matilda! _________________________ "Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice." http://beyondthetears.blogspot.com http://www.facebook.com/lynn.tolson http://www.facebook.com/pages/Beyond-the-Tears-A-True-Survivors-Story/130880013605676
