LoL I did look to find the section for this, but I guess.. I missed it. Sorry!

I'm just waiting to see if anyone have any lines that Sophie had said that made us laugh. Just looking back and remembering.

"Picture it. . .Sicily, 19--"

Lifetime is doing a Golden Girls marathon of Sophia episodes tomorrow from 12-5. I might set my TiVo.

Hmmm, I think the cost of the DVDs are gonna skyrocket, because one of the Golden Girls is gone.

Sophie wasn't the oldest one. Rose is the oldest one, I think. Blanche was the youngest one.

I loved that show when I was a kid. Bea Arthur's character, Dorothy, reminded me so much of my favorite aunt. Actually, everyone in my family noticed that similarity lol.

What was the name of the nursing home Sophia stayed in? Shady Pines? lol

Friends, family and former colleagues gathered for Estelle Getty's funeral in L.A. yesterday, but there was nary a 'Golden Girl' in sight. According to Perez Hilton, surviving 'Girls' Bea Arthur, Betty White and Rue McClanahan were no-shows. Thank you for being a friend, my butt. (July 25)
