Dean Martin With Wife Jeanne & Baby Gina

Dean Martin married Jeanne Biegger on September 1, 1949. They were married for 24 years until February 14, 1973. They had 3 children together: Dean Paul, Ricci & Gina. Jeanne even appeared as herself on an episode of I Love Lucy in 1955. The former married couple would remain close up to Dino's death in 1995. I hope you enjoy these three pictures of Dino and Jeanna together. The baby in the one photo is Gina.

Music In The Key Of Bond

bond

I love James Bond movies. My favorite 007 of all time is Sean Connery. One of the things I love about those Bond films is the incredible theme songs. I love seeing the opening credits roll for each of the movies. Here are clips of those from all six of the official Bond films that starred Connery as our favorite British secret agent. So which is your favorite?


Dr. No - 1962




From Russia With Love - 1963




Goldfinger - 1964




Thunderball - 1965




You Only Live Twice - 1967




Diamonds Are Forever
- 1971



P.S. Is anybody here on Twitter? If so, what do you think about it? Do you enjoy it? Is it hard to get going? I've been considering joining it, but I wanted to get some feedback. Thanks.

Sammy Davis Jr. Oozes So Much Cool

sammy-gq-sept1967

A cover of a magazine is usually what attracts me to a particular issue. When I'm in the supermarket checkout, I might buy a magazine based on who or what is on the cover. Sometimes the contents are good and sometimes they aren't. I'm usually still satisfied with my purchase if I'm a big fan of the cover. I really love seeing vintage magazine covers. They really knew how to make an amazing cover back then. They did so much well in those days. I could spend so much time checking out classic covers online. I so totally am in awe of this GQ cover. I'm a huge Sammy Davis Jr. fan. He's one of the coolest cats of all time. The image of Sammy on this cover oozes so much coolness. I wish I just had an inch of his coolness. I hope you like it too.

P.S. Check out my latest post at Celluloid Slammer. It's a clip of Sammy Davis Jr. singing Mr. Bojangles. It's a different clip than the one I posted up here in the past. Plus you gotta see what Sammy is wearing. I hope you will check out my post and leave some comments there. Thanks.
