Guest lvdkeyes Posted May 27, 2010 Posted May 27, 2010 I honestly thought he had died years ago. Quote
kokopelli Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 I thought Larry King also died two years ago and I was wrong about that. He just looks dead. Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 I thought Larry King also died two years ago and I was wrong about that. He just looks dead. He certainly looks a pale shadow of how he looked a few years ago. Perhaps it's because he and his wife (No. are pondering divorce, with one reason being given that she thinks he cheated on her - with her kid sister. There's a nice little piece in The Huffington Post about it in which the author gives Larry some advice. Eight marriages. Eight divorces. Bravo! You're one of my absolute favorite television personalities out there. I could watch you interview people all night long. I think you're fantastic. Why, though, didn't any of these great guests that you've had on your show ever give you relationship advice? No prenuptial agreement again? I mean, how much money can you possibly keep splitting? Your soon-to-be ex wife number eight, Shawn Southwick, wants three houses. The mansion in Beverly Hills she of course wants. There are two other homes as well that she wants. She wants all three of them. Larry, I know that you're a wealthy man, but how many more checks can you write? How many more women are you going to marry? How many more kids are you going to have?

Guest fountainhall Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 I thought Larry King also died two years ago and I was wrong about that. He just looks dead. He's just announced his demise. He's finally leaving his CNN show in September. Seems that the ratings have been tanking which suggest he was pushed, even thought the network said he wants to spend more time with his wife and family (yes, he's decided not to get divorced after all). Wonder who will take over that slot? Quote
Gaybutton Posted July 1, 2010 Author Posted July 1, 2010 he wants to spend more time with his wife and family Wonder who will take over that slot? Have you ever noticed that when famous people, especially politicians, lose their jobs, resign, or whatever - usually under pressure, it's always "to spend more time with my family"? As for who will take over, don't you know? Quote
