Shirley Temple was the big thing with the girls when I was a kid. If my sisters could generate a dime, they went to one of her movies. Being a boy,polo ralph lauren pas cher, I was only interested in war and western movies. That is until puberty, when I was interested in war, westerns, and any movie starring a sexy woman. When ?he Outlaw?came to our town, we snuck off to see it. Wow!
I mainly watched Shirley Temple movies with my kids on television. She was a cute little tyke with the cute dimples and all. Shirley also made some movies as a teenager. I?e seen a couple of these on television and the first thing I noticed was that she talked the same way as she did as a child. Some director! Well,abercrombie, maybe that is the way she still talks. Anyway, I think that is what ended her career although I haven? talked to her about it and I? afraid to call her:
?hirley??br />
?ho is this??br />
?ohn Jones, the writer.?br />
??e never heard of you. Can I help you??(She is always so sweet and polite, I think.)
?t? not an alias, Shirley.?br />
?ame answer. What do you want, Mr. Jones??br />
"Actually,casque dr dre, it's Dr. Jones."
"Same answer. What do you want,casque beats, Dr. Jones?"
? wanted to ask you what happened to your movie career.?br />
?othing happened except, like all movie careers, it ended.?br />
I would be afraid to ask her about the child-like dialogue of her teenage movie era. I would say,polo ralph lauren, ?or the United States of America,christian louboutin, I would like to thank you for your many years of service to our country, as Ambassador, White House Chief of Protocol wizard, and all that.?br />
?ou don? sound like a writer,louboutin, Dr. Jones, but I thank you for your kind words anyway.?br />
That? when she would hang up on me before I could ask her why Gerald Ford sent her as Ambassador to the Republic of Ghana.
He? the president who made her White House Chief of Protocol, so I guess he made up for it.
Betty probably said,casque beats by dre, ?erald, what in the hell is wrong with you, sending Shirley Temple to Ghana! You should have sent her to Kashmir. Next time, ask me first!?br />
He got the point, I guess. (Well, if you are not a Washington insider, you must guess.)
Anyway, Shirley Temple kept acting after her movie career. She was on television and the radio. Her second husband, Charles Black, was probably a major factor in her life in doing governmental service, but she has hobnobbed with all the presidents of her time and they would influence her too. (All except for Gerald Ford who sent her to Ghana.)
Shirley took her husband? name. That impressed me. It showed she had class. She became a very mature,louboutin pas cher, beautiful woman. She has made those wonderful contributions to our country. That is why we all love Shirley Temple Black.
