I know. Doris Day hadn't made a movie since 1968. She still was what I considered a perfect woman; Smart, self sufficient, big heart and attractive. I enjoyed watching her more than the bombshells like Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell. (I have nothing against bombshells) If you are ever in a bad mood, watch a Doris Day movie and I bet you will soon feel better. I think the Parent Trap was my favorite. Pillow Talk is a close second. Rest well, Doris. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doris_Day  |

Great post... Have a bone on the Old Chopper Guy!
Doris Day was a true icon of the BEST period of our country... You know, the time when you could go on vacation and not even lock your front door... (Heck, my personal chopper, "Old Blue" which I had invested over $20K in and THAT is $200K in today's sorry bucks) didn't even have an ignition key-lock... It retained the original 1957 Harley Davidson keyless "on-off" ignition switch.
A time when there were only TWO sexes, and most folks knew WHICH one they were... Yeah, I know Rock Hudson was gay, but he was still a MAN and movie fans loved him (and Doris) together...
With Doris' passing, we have lost one more precious contact with things which made America great for nearly two centuries... The last 50 years have not been great, but it's getting better.
Yes, rest in peace Doris, you made millions of fans worldwide smile!
Ride safe, the clock is ticking for all of us.
