Jackie never went back to Dallas again.

you're scaring me lately

Jackie took secrets to her grave. :(

A friend of mine was staying on the Vineyard and met her a watering trough while horseback riding at like five in the morning. He said she engaged him in polite small talk and was "Very, very."
She never worked. She spent her life studying languages, the various protocols of different cultures, and the arts. That's why she was so poised at age 30 - all she did was work on self-development. She epitomized what a finishing school strove to produce.
She would often serve as interpreter at dinner parties and meetings and frame Jack's reply properly with respect to protocol, custom, and context in a way an American who was merely fluent could not.

Ahh...I'm mellow. I don't care enough what anyone thinks or says to do anything to anyone.

She was pretty hot back in the day......

Every woman believes she's a princess, until the princess arrives.

so the MM attraction was because she wasn't so finished?

Every man loves an lemon tart, scones are not enough.

classy way of putting it.... :btu:

Put it this way: Today show host Meredith Vieria said, in defense of Jennifer Aniston, that if Angelina Jolie stole her husband, she'd write it off as an act of God.

I take Jackie over Marilyn. Marilyn would pull this 'little girl lost' routine on all her lovers. No thanks. Coddling a head case wears thin. I'd rather be with with a woman I could learn from.

Don't ya know, falling in Lust can be fun.

She was always looking to someone like that, the photographer Eve Arnold was about ten years older than her and a close friend who photographed her several times. Arnold liked Marilyn but complained that she was always looking for mothering from her. She had this "please help me" trait that would emerge quickly after meeting someone, and left her vulnerable - when in fact, she was quite bright, and should have had enough self-esteem to present herself with confidence.
Jackie had smaller boobs, but she was not short on confidence. She looked and acted so sophisticated - it makes you wonder how early she became that way, because when she arrived on the world stage at 31, she was already there.

Do you watch the "Today Show" after "The View"?

No, I read it in the grocery store - People Magazine

My wife rode in an elevator with her once. She said the thing that was most noticeable about her was how far apart her eyes were. It's very apparent in the photo in this thread.

Her mother and father were alcoholics. Her mother would pick her apart, that eyes were set too far apart, that her breasts were too small, that she was bow-legged from too much horseback riding. The kind of things that would ruin the self-esteem of the typical teenage girl and usually do. But she traveled in good circles and had friends with exceptional parents, and was able to discern early on that her parents were critically flawed along with their judgements.
I can remember sitting at the dinner table listening to my mother and father talk about current events - which was more along the lines of a disjointed rabble of opinions based upon the ingrained biases they held against just about everything - and thinking to myself, "Have they done any reading?"

Are you Mike Dauphin's friend that came over that night I was buying lures a few years back?

If I said yes I would incriminate myself.

I could bust your balls publicly, but you have to a certain kind of personality for that. I just couldn't do that; I'm a nice guy.

If I really cared would I respond Joe?

You just did.

And what does that tell you?

Not a lot to be honest.

I'm not squirting tears over it. I would just prefer a discourse more inline with how I treat others.

If the world worked that way it would be a boring albeit nicer place.Regardless,I apologize for my sarcasm regarding your viewing habits.No offense was intended Joe,have a great holiday season.You are right about yourself being nice and I'm surprised it never surfaced before you indicated such.

My niceness has come up before. Google me some time when its slow, like after the Today Show and before The View. There are several testaments from around the web, some of which I didn't forge.

Jackie is famous for one other little known item- she had a brilliant plan to save around $50,000,000 in federal estate taxes. She went to some young estate planning lawyer at Milbank Tweed named Jonathan Blattmacher. He came up with a charitable lead trust plan that eliminated estate taxes using annual charitable payments for a term of years and skipped a generation. Bored yet? Blattmacher got very rich and famous and the family wealth goes on.

Joe is cool.
