One of the interesting things about this exhibit -- the only time it's being shown in the USA -- is that it's being shown at the Michener Museum in Doylestown, Bucks County. Now, nothing wrong with the Michener Museum BUT it's not a place you would expect to see this exhibit. Very, very interesting that it's NOT at the Philadelphia Museum of Art which houses Grace's wedding gown AND on whose board Vicki is a member. See this list: www.philamuseum.org/information/43-323.html?page=2Hibou ... your observations?

I just watched a piece on the TODAY show featuring the exhibit at the Michener Museum. The piece included an interview w/Fat Al. Trampolina played her role as the human stick perfectly --- she sat next to him and didn't open her mouth! I'm guessing everyone has finally realized and accepted that she is unable to compose a cogent thought -- in any language!
I'll post link a bit later.

Apparently trashy colourcordinated her outfit once again to the interior, this time the walls...for lack of tablecloths I suppose. Albert looks drunk btw and next to his moms pic he looks more and more as if he was adopted... the older he gets the less he looks like he is her son...

All stories from the TODAY show are currently online ... EXCEPT, of course, of the interview w/Fat Al. I guess they didn't want to take-up too much bandwith with a hollow interview

wonder why Albert hasn't attempted to buy that house and turn it into a permanent exhibit for his mom. There are pics of her in that house and people coud actually relate the house to her life. And they could have a permanent space to house her things from the time until her wedding. They could even ask for the weddingdress to be moved there. Looks like the place will be up for grabs soon anyways, so might seize the opportunity...

Today would have been Grace's 84th birthday. I wonder if Fat Al and Trampolina even care

If anyone has ever heard of Robert Evans (I only do because my ex bore a resemblance to him...and I thought he was dead, truthfully) He has come out with a book that states Ari Onassis is the one who steered Rainier to Grace: Rainier only married Grace because Onassis told him to?I can see Eringer's blog light up red in a few moments!

I would say it was arranged. But in the end it was real love imo. Sounds cheesy, I know..
