something for the coffin dodgers (kudos to cashy ) to wonder where the hell time has gone ...1962Actress Marilyn Monroe performed a sultry rendition of "Happy Birthday" for President John F. Kennedy during a fund-raiser at New York's Madison Square Garden.

I seem to remember the first colour TV I saw in an ordinary house was around 1968, my next door neighbour had one, my mother got one in 1973 a 20 inch, today your not up with the times if you haven't got an HD Plazma

If Marilyn had been British she may still have been alive beechy, there's no CIA over here

It only seems like yesterday (Oh God, I'm getting old). I was getting ready for my wedding (all those lists and the invitations to be sent out.) I remember my husband-to-be said, "How have they managed to get her to sing for him?" Well we all know how, now, don't we?

I think ther will always be people who think Diana was topped cashy, I don't think a death has been more thoroughly investigated than her's, yet I can't see anyone ever know the whole truth, but even so this doesn't take away from the fact that the CIA are ruthless, and are a law unto themselves

It must have been a bit embarrassing for Mrs K., sat there knowing her husband was diddling Marilyn.

From what has been said Rindi, seems she had got used to it, as Marilyn wasn't the first, seems he had a liking for the ladies

Never heard it called that before. When questioned by the Senate regarding his relationship with Monica Lewinsky, Bill Clinton replied: "I have never diddled that woman."
