We went down to the Long Beach Motorama to see the sights, normally we will highlight some of the rare and special cars we see, but nearly everything here was special and unique. Funny thing is we also tried to label each of the cars (it helps with the search results), our job was a little harder this time since many of the normal indicators of what the car is, like the grill, have been chopped and altered with rows of dresser drawer buttons and such, and almost every car had Cadillac wheels or Buick taillights. It started as a 55 Ford, but has the running gear of a 1988 Lincoln Town Car and the front and rear ends from a '59 Cadillac and a '60 Chrysler. it is hard to tell what it was anymore, but now it is a one off, amazingly beautiful custom... and what a custom.

In Mr. Lincoln's famous address, which many credit with earning him the presidency, Mr. Lincoln argued against the spread of slavery to the Western states. The speech is the subject of a new book by Harold Holzer, Lincoln at Cooper Union: The Speech That Made Abraham Lincoln President, published by Simon and Schuster. Prior to Waterston's speech, Mr. Holzer described the culture that produced the speech, Lincoln's presidential campaign, and the speech's impact. Mr. Holzer introduced Sam Waterston's presentation.

Sam Waterston may have become a familiar face for many through Law and Order but his latest project stretches things in a different direction as he joins Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda plus Charlie Sheen for ‘Grace and Frankie’ where he takes on the role of a “gay geyser”. It is always interesting to see how actors can maneuver in and out of different roles especially after being on one show for so long (he starred in Law and Order for 16 years). But at the same time, that has to build up an incredible tolerance for the ups and downs associated with the industry. At the end of the day, it helped him send all four of his kids to college debt free, he does what he loves day in and day out not to mention he got a chance to stick his hand in Sway’s sack before leaving the studio.
