Betty White, beloved and trailblazing actress, dies at 99

Next ATW should be Betty White week again in her honour.

Third! Bob Hope lived to 100. George Burns lived to 100. Betty White was 17 days away from turning 100. ABC was planning to air a special, Betty White: 100 Years Young – A Birthday Celebration. The proper term is "100 years old," not "100 years young" – but I guess that no longer matters. I imagine the special will still be shown, but now it will serve as a tribute instead of a documentary.

Hello boys.

I came here, after a hiatus of many months, just to share my grief with you all over the passing of Betty White. I was not mistaken in my recollection that this group was fond of her.

Anyway, I hope all of you are well. Have a happy and safe New Year’s, and call HecticArt from time to time. He worries about you.

RIP, I will always remember here from the game show Match Game in the 1970’s. She was a semi-regular on the show.

I was having diner with my wife and we were sharing Betty White memories. I shared that I remember her from Match Game. She was funny as a whip on it.

Nice to have you visit. Maybe we'll see you again when Keith Richards goes.

Great. We'll never hear from Casual again.....

 

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

Great. We'll never hear from Casual again.....

As long as Betty was alive, Keith was safe. Now all bets are off.

I heard about the news couple days ago and it was very sad. I see you guys changed your avatars and just declare as ATW #450: Betty White week.

Keith Richards never dying reminds me of Mitch Hedberg's AIDS test.

He calls a buddy. "Hey man, you know anybody who has AIDS?"
"No, man."
"Cool. 'Cause you know me!"
