I couldn't come up with anything to say so Hmmmm.... oh well. was the best I could do... so why did I bother posting this? Boggles the mind!

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:39 (twenty-three years ago)

I am unhappy. :(

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 January 2003 19:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, me too. She was lovely.

― Arthur (Arthur), Thursday, 23 January 2003 20:01 (twenty-three years ago)

She finally got a break!

Tracer it took all my energy not to make that joke.

She ate too much Pecan pie.

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 23 January 2003 20:54 (twenty-three years ago)

What's Pecan pie?

― moonbeampolka (Lara), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:09 (twenty-three years ago)

I pity anyone who does not know what pecan pie is.

RIP Nell

To be honest I don't know what it is either.

*It just seemed like the right thing to say*

I think that these boards need their own slang that indicates that someone has died. Something based on an inside joke.

alt.gossip.celebrities has "no longer shopping at the Pig(gly Wiggly)"

I almost posted about Nell Carter, but someone beat me to it.
But I almost referred to her as "NLSTP".

I literally couldn't think of anything to say but thought it was worthy of posting... I mean, she DIED so you don't want to be mean (in retrospect I should've been), but at the same time you don't want to pretend like she's actually impacted my life beyond seeing that tv show she was in the 80s. Then there's always the "but her career died decades ago!" route.

Hang on. Who is this woman?

I thought she was one of the lesser-known 'Peanut' Carters.

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 23 January 2003 21:36 (twenty-three years ago)

i momentarily confused her with the chick from night court!

She was a Tony award winner for "Ain't Misbehavin'" and an Emmy award winner for her tv work. Critics say she was a great singer, and an actress with a wide range, as well as a great tv comic. Thought she deserved this to be mentioned.

― Sean (Sean), Friday, 24 January 2003 05:19 (twenty-three years ago)

She actually was a very fine singer indeed.

This is a Pecan Pie. As for Nell... enjoy the cheesecake...
I mean that's what people in heaven eat right? Philadelphia Cream Cheese? At least that's what they tell me on tv...

― Kirsty A, Friday, 24 January 2003 14:19 (twenty-three years ago)

At first I thought this refered to Neil Carter off the Archers then, for little Nell from Dickens, I've no idea why.

― Ed (dali), Friday, 24 January 2003 14:32 (twenty-three years ago)

She valiantly fought that pesky vacuum.
