"You do know how to whistle, don't you?"

We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo

"The actress was 89. She is survived by her three children, son Stephen Humphrey Bogart, daughter Leslie Bogart, and son Sam Robards."

Bigger than life and lived a very big life. Which you can see if you....

that is exactly what came to my mind, and it is the picture of a perfect relationship in my mind - two independent halves coming together to make an amazing whole.

Her face,
Radiant Grace.
Bask in it,
Be worthy.

Sigh. They've pretty much faded away now, haven't they? Just wisps of memories I once had. The melancholy rests heavy tonight.

I loved her from the very first moment I saw her, and I always will. Sic transit gloria mundi.

Gah! I hate that stupid song, it's wrong Wrong WRONG! "Here's looking at you, kid," is from Casablanca, and Bogart said it to Ingrid Bergman, not to Lauren Bacall.

That said, what a dame she was. 19 years old and smokin' hot in her first movie with Bogart. I hope they're together now.

@Stoutcat - As Time Goes By sung by Dooley Wilson in Casablanca.

Thanks for triggering that memory. Bogart made dames look good, didn't he?
