Former Golden Girl Betty White, 86, was on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson yesterday and her interview made me laugh out loud several times. Her lines were scripted jokes, but she delivered them so well it hardly mattered. I was pretty surprised when I looked up her age for this article, because I assumed she was in her 70s.

The collective reputation of TV's Golden Girls seemed to tarnish somewhat when word circulated that not a single cast member attended the funeral of costar Estelle Getty, who died July 22.
But Betty White, who starred on the hit sitcom with Getty, Rue McClanahan and Bea Arthur, says no disrespect should be inferred.
"We were with Estelle when it mattered," White, 86, tells Entertainment Tonight, reports ET.com.

If we're going to talk about fabulous TV shows from the 80's, then someone has to bring up Golden Girls. And that someone probably should be me - I own every season on DVD! I love the wit, the humor, the fact that I could relate to the characters (even with the age gap), and that they still have the power to make me laugh out loud.

Arthur died peacefully at her Los Angeles home with her family at her side, family spokesman Dan Watt said.

EVER since Mary Todd Lincoln overshot the White House decorating budget by $6,700 (a third of her $20,000 appropriation), infuriating her husband and delighting a press corps that had already turned against her, the redecoration of the president’s house has been a public relations minefield. Some new administrations tiptoe through it unscathed; others are less nimble, and bombs explode.
“It’s an old maxim that you can build a billion-dollar highway that’s the biggest pork barrel in the world and no one will say anything,” said William Seale, a White House historian, “but if you’re in public office and you try and change your desk, you’re going to end up on the front page.
