Marilyn Monroe's secretions


That's either hot or icky.

Might be safer to keep Ted Kennedy away from anything capable of floating.

Anything that can go into water and possibly sink.

This was owned by the Coast Guard? Your tax dollars at work.

little known fact, kurt vonnegut worked on one of the Kennedy yachts for 6 months I don't think it was this one though

They'd fetch double the price if they had kept the secretions.

Where Ted Kennedy is going, he won't need a boat.

So you can't wait until your hotel has less customers, eh?
Odd.....

I'm voting for hot. Hollywood doesn't make them like that these days.

Tillmaster: So you can't wait until your hotel has less fewer customers, eh?

Is the less/fewer thing really that difficult?

There goes my plan of creating an island of Norma Jean sexbots from her DNA-- was planning to supplement what DNA was broken with some other blonde, a la Jurassic Park.

Wow man. I even looked at that guy and said "He's not a Kennedy... but... is it Kerry? No way."

Read the comment, sure enough.

mr lawson 2008-10-12 10:06:58 AM  
that will go for a hell lot more than 1.3 mill. i'm thinking more like 10-20 mill

Have you been watching the market this week? I'd be surprised if it goes for more than a snickers bar and a handjob.


ummm..no...

I was friends with Arthur Miller for the last 12 years of his life. Everywhere we went there were pictures of Monroe. Her image is used more than just about anyones.

Can you imagine living that life? Constantly being reminded of that chapter of your past?

Opening night of his laast play he sits down in his seat and what is on the back of the playbill? A diamond ad with a huge picture of his dead ex wife.

Sad.

No kidding?

Not just a resemblance?

Quite a wise investment that chick made for $32K.

$1.3M for a piece of American Presidential history as significant as that seems like a decent investment. If I had the coin, I'd buy her.

Besides,I could totally get laid if I owned her. That vessel has seen more tail than any other Presidential item, including Bill Clinton's desk.

Dude... there are easier, much more inexpensive ways to get laid.

The people are one of the reasons I moved out of Annapolis.

Coastalgrl - Was one of the other reasons you moved the growing crime rate?

Coastalgrl 2008-10-12 12:06:35 PM  
The crime rate was getting worse when I was leaving but it wasnt a top concern. There was more publicity on the muggings on the National Mall. I was not a fan of hearing gun shots nearly ever night from the neighboring slums.

I had this wonderful idea to go to grad school to get a masters so I quit my job and moved to the west coast. Now Ive managed to graduate during some interesting economic times leaving me unemployed.

Gotta love what happens to the best laid plans.

Only Forest Dr. and Parts of West St. are bad after dark.

And on teh far right I believe that's Bing Crosby. I'm surprised he had time to go sailing what with his busy schedule of recording albums, making Christmas specials and beating the crap out of his kids.

Too soon?

I can empathize; I graduated from college in '74, right in the middle of a gas shortasge and another economic crisis. Unemployment was up around 6-7% nationwide, and in double digits in my state. Best laid plans, indeed.

This. I'd venture to say that the real sailors are aboard their yachts, not staying in a hotel.

Also, WANT
