Happy Birthday, Happy Deathday

Greetings, friends,
Today is 5 April 2008, the 100th birthday of Bette Davis:


"From the moment I was six I felt sexy.  And let me tell you it was hell, sheer hell, waiting to do something about it."

Here's another nice photo of her with Gale Sondergaard (the inspiration for the Evil Queen in "Snow White") playing a dragon lady in "The Letter".

Yesterday, 4 April 2008, was the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Here is his last speech (in two parts):
