Whitney's mother Cissy Houston is still alive at age 86.
I have written about Tina in the past - I have a great deal of admiration for her talent, showmanship, perseverance and the fact that she took, and passed, the Swiss citizenship test in German. Sure, some folks around here could do that, but I marvel at it. She is from Nutbush. Now she is Swiss. What a life.
If there weren't any words and it was just these two sexy-time miming around on the stage and making random noises you'd still get the meaning of the song. I think this is a Rod Stewart song. About banging a 17 year old and kicking her out of bed. Those old school rockers did not hesitate copulate with anything that moved! It's gross and heroic at the same time.
It's Tina bringing the energy and dominating the scene this time around. I don't know where to go with these posts. I'm still unclear as to how or why Tom has become the recent focus, but he definitely opens doors to more.
Amartel's mention of the song's author brought a look at RodS's life--with the note he's a HO train enthusiast, in addition to being color blind. He's also fathered 8 children with five different mothers.
I just learned that Tina has been battling health problems in recent years including a stroke, cancer and failing kidneys. She felt that her time was up and signed up with Exit for an assisted suicide. She didn't want to spend years on dialysis and didn't relish the idea of being put on a waiting list for a kidney transplant that might never come. That was too much for her younger husband, Erwin, who decided to give up a kidney to save her life. He did and she's still with us.
It's all in her latest autobiography, My Love Story.
My brother-in-law, who received a donor kidney in September from someone who was a student of his when he taught high school, is also doing well.
I appreciate the book mention, Dad Bones. This line from the first chapter prompted me to order a used copy. I believe an honestly told story holds power and am curious to see what stands out in this one.
I did dangerous things, and dangerous things were done to me, but in the eleventh hour, something always told me when to run, how to survive. No matter what happened to me, I came through it every time. I decided, well, maybe I’m supposed to live. Maybe I’m here for a reason. And maybe the reason is to share my story with you.

Very well preserved but definitely long in the tooth.
Kudos to a lady who survived where a Whitney Houston (who was raised in the biz BTW) succumbed.
I guess segregation had an up side.

And he was right: Every picture tells a story.
