Consternation! That's why I don't trust the insty-post option; I hit the wrong file from my folder of '50s Actresses That Aren't Marilyn Monroe and didn't think to check. Fixed to the one I wanted now.
Another great one gone. It's been told a million times but I still adore her reaction to the African American soldiers being seated behind the German POWs during her WWII USO tours.
You're not the only one! My standard thought is "Lena Horne is dead yet Mickey Rooney lives". I was watching the Oscars pre-show this year and there he was--will that man ever die?
Why Judy Garland and not Mickey Rooney, an untalented asshole who spread pernicious (and above all, untrue) gossip about those too dead to defend themselves? Ugh.
