Mickey Rooney
We'll, another actor has kicked on. Married 8 times, wow and help!
Vale Mickey.
A couple of years ago I tried to get in touch to ask about memories of Bing to present at the annual meeting but never heard back. Likewise with Sean Connery and Clint Eastwood.

Re: Mickey Rooney
Mickey Rooney revised history a lot. He claimed that Mickey Mouse was named after him! Anyways, I remember when Bob Hope died, Larry King had Mickey Rooney on and he said that Bing Crosby never did a think for the USO. He was kind about Bob but rather negative on Bing. Larry King even corrected him on it. I never fully forgave Rooney for that.

Re: Mickey Rooney
Mickey couldn't shine Bing's shoes! Although that's all he would have been able to reach.
Anyway, Mickey was very talented and will be missed.
Peace and Love!

Re: Mickey Rooney
Mickey Rooney could be a rascal but he was a brilliant actor even in subpar films, take a look at the 1972 film he appeared in with Michael Caine "Pulp" he had a brilliant cameo which was the best thing about the film.
