The most interesting thing in my e-mail box this morning was a note from Jerry Kissell, who was writing about the passing of Marilyn Chambers, the ex-porn star and Ivory Snow box cover girl. Although not in that order.
Jerry was the P.R. guy for the old Las Vegas Quicksilvers pro soccer team, and he said Ms. Chambers, who was living in Las Vegas then, was the star of the Quicksilvers' one and only celebrity game.
"Our late general manager, Marvin Milkes, believed that a celebrity all-star game would be a natural in Las Vegas," Jerry wrote. "However, the Quicksilvers were soon to discover that none of the big stars were eager to play in this game and that the roster soon became a group of wanna-be lounge performers plus Marilyn."
Well, almost.
In a second memory-jogging e-mail, he said there were two stars of that celebrity game, one for each side. Foster Brooks was the other one.
THEN
A lot of people noticed that Chad Campbell, the former Rebel, had a UNLV wood cover in his bag as he battled tooth-and-nail for The Masters championship this weekend.
I noticed that, too. But first I noticed he was wearing a golf shirt with "Jani-King, The King of Clean" stitched over his heart, which must have made the proper types at Augusta National recoil in horror.
It kind of reminded me of the original "Rocky," where Stu Nahan mentioned Rocky Balboa was wearing a robe that said "Shamrock Meats" on the back.
Marilyn Chambers, what body!!
Anna Malle died here in Vegas, right?
Vegas:
Who do I look like, Ron Jeremy? :-) I'm not familiar with the other woman you mention. But I have a buddy that probably is. I'll have to get back with you.
Ha ha. Ya, Anna died trying to do a u-turn on Blue Diamond 3yrs ago.
Well, I must say that I never realized how beautiful marilyn chambers was. I just bought her classic movie, "behind the green door" at www.behindgreendoor.com and I could not believe how wonderful she was. It is truly a sad day.
LOL, Ron!! Highly recommend DVD "Sweet as Honey"!!
Lenny:
Why did I know you would know that? :-)
Thanks for sparing me the research (I think).
Elaine: Agreed.
Vegas: I'll keep that in mind the next time my wife visits her mother and the Cubs have an off day.
Cubs??? I'm a Brewers fan, now you know why I have sooooo much time to know sooooo much on the topic. When you watch the movie, when you hear Anna say "I'm such a bad girl" you NEVER forget it. One of the best scenes in Adult film history.
I met hear years ago, Ron. She was definitely a livewire!
