Happy Birthday, Kate Mulgrew!

“I think people think I’m accessible. I’m never treated as a star, either by fans or other actors, and I like it like that. I don’t get the star treatment. I think that means I’m a good actor. They acknowledge me as a human being, and to me, that’s invalua.”
— Kate Mulgrew

“Let us not take ourselves too seriously. None of us has a monopoly on wisdom” Queen Elizabeth II

Live Long and Prosper Queen Elizabeth II

Who would have thought
Of being in the same job
For some sixty three years
– Surely worth some cheers

You’re part of the folk
Even cracked a few jokes
You got street smarts
And certainly won our hearts

Pink, purple or blue
To name but a few
The colours like your spirit
Would inspire many lyrics

Wishes for
Many more
Years of reign
Hear our hail:

Long Live the Queen,
And surely and sincerely
A very happy 91st birthday!

Our king and superhero
Will add a few years to the zero

“Actors, I don’t think, ever really grow up. I’m hoping that that rejuvenating process applies to me, too. It has so far. I’ve been very lucky” Derek Jacobi

Happy Birthday Sir Derek Jacobi

Loved you in Claudius
Adored you in Octavius
Excellent performance in Cadfael
Utterly radiant in Halifax
And completely hilarious in Vicious

On this special day
An homage I’d like to pay
With wishes most sincere
To an actor utterly revered
Sir Derek Jacobi

Blue Eyes: Happy 91st Dame Angela

Posted in Fandom /Celebration

“Here I am, I still go on, you know, like the tides” Angela Lansbury

Blue Eyes

She’s got grace and style
And to top it, a great smile
Oh those blue eyes
Could light up the skies
Her face most adorable
Her talent undeniable
Like the whirlwind
Still hard at working
A Queen without a crown
A Dame with a gown
She is the belle of the ball
So say we all
Now and for ever more

Happy 67th Birthday Sigourney Weaver

Posted in Celebration/Fandom

“It’s such a nice change to get to play a wretched, shallow, mergers-and-acquisitions woman. My true colors come out” Sigourney Weaver

Happy 67th Birthday Sigourney Weaver

sigourney-weaver_0

Titillating, luscious, sexy
Statuesque, stately, leggy

Just a few adjectives to describe
An actress quite divine

Drama, comedy, horror
Sometimes even the explorer

Quite the knack for science fiction
Up to the point of fans’ addiction

The queen of all queens
Our one and only Sci-Fi Queen

On this day of celebration
Thanking you for your dedication

What more is there to say
But a very Happy Birthday
