Let Sleeping Harry Belafontes Lie
These are the facts: Harry Belafonte is 84 years old and was forced to pull his sleeping bones off of his Tempur-Pedic to move his tired lips while talking about some HBO documentary to local news stations across the country yesterday morning.
This is also a fact: Reading that sentence probably lulled you into a deep keyboard nap like you just orgasmed while swallowing a cup of MSG. WAKE UP!
Okay, so because of the second fact, you can completely understand why Shari Belafonte's father slipped into a nap while waiting to talk to Eyewitness News in Bakersfield, CA. Besides, oldies are master nappers. They're almost better than cats at napping.
They wake up in the morning, sit up, slip their house shoes on and take a quick nap while sitting up. They wake up again, grab a glass of water on the bedside table and take a quick nap with their hand still on the glass. They wake up for a third time, take a sip of water and take a quick nap with the water still in their mouth. They wake up for a fourth time, swallow the water and take a quick nap again. By the time you've washed your pits, slipped on your tuxedo onesie for work and ate an entire carafe of coffee, your pepaw hasn't even gulped one sip of water.
You know what else oldies are good at? Lying about taking naps! Harry's rep is trying to say that he wasn't going mimi times, he was meditating. Ommmmmmmmmmmyoulying!
"After weeks of literally hundreds of interviews promoting his HBO documentary [Sing Your Song], memoir and CD, Mr. Belafonte had an early morning satellite TV tour this past Friday. His earpiece wasn't working, so he decided to take the time to mediate before the rest of his Day-O.Mr. Belafonte is 84 years young, but sharper and more awake than most who have been interviewing him. Maybe the world would be a better place if more people took a moment to meditate."
Don't nap in our eyes and call it meditating! This is like my abuelita saying that she wasn't sleeping, she was quietly praying to her lord and savior to save my brat soul. Yeah, and I'm sure that wasn't snoring. The power of prayer blew the holy ghost right out of her nostrils. I know I'm gonna get it for that one....

I agree with you all about the informality. I was annoyed with Bill Clinton when he referred to Mrs. Kennedy as Jackie at her funeral. It seemed inappropriate to me. She was a stickler 'bout things like that and would not have been pleased, especially at a funeral.
That's our local news-they are silly and acting the fool most mornings, but they are better than the alternative. They always do the hump day dance on Wednesday which is pretty funny to watch. The welfare version of Rachel Ray that you're seeing is Layla. I used to hate her voice when I first moved out here, but she grows on you and she's nice person that does a lot of good for schools, etc. She always talks like that.
This morning they were talking about it and admitted that they thought he might have died on air when it happened. They've asked his people to have him back on but he declined. Asshole.

"That clip was funny though & I don't particularly care for Belafonte. He once told Eartha Kitt that "no Black woman can do anything for me"...after he slept with her, the bastard."
...he really said that?? Wow...and this is the same guy who most recently stated that Herman Cain is a 'false negro'...way to keep it real, Harry!

Good Lord, that woman's voice is just hideous! Who thought it was a good idea to let her present a show??

Your kind thoughts are appreciated. But the cat was lost in Greece, where the local people have a habit of shooting stray animals, not taking them in as pets. :(
I only hope it was quick and painless.

Fuck those fuckity fuck fuckers.
I lost my kitty forever while traveling. It was my own damn fault and I have to live with it for the rest of my life. His carrier was just a little unzipped and he managed to worm his way out. Unfortunately he escaped to a place where the local people are really shitty to animals and I doubt he could have survived long. I stayed three extra days looking for him but he was never found.
I was so angry at myself. I told myself not to get another cat, at least for a few months. But then I stopped in another country and saw an animal-shelter group giving away kitties and puppies. I still had the cat carrier, and I had the opportunity to save a life, so...
She's my avie now.

I believe that a kind person took in that kitty and loved and cared for it. We had a stray show up on our doorstep and three years later, she is in my lap:)

Um, many people at that age that LIVE to be that age do so because they have learned to block out bullshit.
Like these shenanigans, for instance

Are there nude photos of Harry exposing his elderly black sizemeat(8 inches or more on the tape measure)?
Given the many disadvantages of old age there must be some perks too, like taking a nap when you feel like it. If you spent your life doing what needs to be done you're entitled to do whatever you want. Team Harry all the way.

I've always thought he was incredibly handsome too. Just so classic looking. His daughter inherited his good looks.
Nothing is more important in this world than lookin' spiffy
Such a handsome man.
I actually just watched the tape and want to slug that dumb chick. Fucking rude.

Why is it that people in entertainment, never wanna retire?
I think it is their choice not to retire. I think one thing is they need/want more
money & also addicted to the fame.

actually it does look like he is meditating and he looks damn good for 84 - so fuck all of youse who are being mean to the old guy. He's a legend. Show some bloody respect.
Oh my fucking god, UBF...that is horrible - I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry D:
I'm sending lots of love and hugs and good thoughts to you and your family. Sadness.
UBF, babe, I am sorry. WTF is wrong with motherfuckers? If you cannot be nice to animlas it is a sure sign that you are fucked. You do not have to own them or like them, but to intentionally be mean to an animal (espcially a small domesticated one)or harm/kill is a reason to be locked away from the rest of us. People are assholes, but this one lurves you.

Holy shit, UBF! That's some serial-killer-in-training stuff right there!
I am SO SORRY. :(
Aw, let a pepaw have nap time!!

Some asshole shot the kitty with a BB gun. The pellets (i think that`s what it`s called) shattered her upper leg. The vet would have had to amputate it and that would have ran me 1200 bucks i didn`t have. So we had to put her down.
I hate people.

UBF, I missed it. What happened to your pretty kitty? I just lost my awesome 19 year old cat. Think we're going to wait until spring to hit the shelters, though.
"Bitch has Rachel Ray Voice." Thank you Uncle Brain-Fart. That was my exact thought when I watched this!
And Lawd, if that nails on a blackboard ho's voice did not wake the man up, then he wasn't wakin' up!

Co signing on all the respect for your elders comments. I can't stand it when some youngin' acts too informal with an older person, or when they call someone "pops" or "moms." Don't be calling me pops, if I was your pops you wouldn't ever say that to someone cuz I would've "popped" you in the mouth the first time I heard you say it.
Same thing with these creditors. I used to get mad, now I love it when they call asking for me by my first name. I take down all the contact info then I ask them if they're a friend of this person (me).
They say no, I go "Oh. I thought you knew him personally." And then it's on, I give them a loud lecture about being misleading, underhanded, sneaky, the whole nine yards. Then I tell them good luck on that person getting back in touch with them. Fuckers.
Had a huge crush on Harry as a kid. I saw him on the Colbert Report last night. He was great and he sang a duet with Stephen at the end, which was wonderful. Check it out...

UBF, I meant to say I'm very sorry about your little feline. Humans can be such assholes. I hope you feel better soon.x

I know you're old Mr. Belafonte but in the words of another old person, Judge Judy, "don't pee on my head and tell me its raining!" LoL. Old people can sleep anytime and anywhere. My grandfather would seriously sleep through a freight train that came barreling through his bedroom. My grandmother always complains cause he falls asleep half way through movies and she ends up watching by herself lol.

Hey Bjork. I m doing better, had a rough patch this morning when the hubbie called and i had to tell him what happened.
Just trying to stay busy and not to think about it too much. Although i was on the animal shelters website today and checked out their kittys. But I want to wait a few month before we get another one.
No alt-huntin` today?? You better let a bitch know when you spot one...
=============
Jesus is an alt.
When you're 84 years old you get to do whatever the fuck you want. I can't wait until I'm in my 80s.

Hey UBF,
How are you doing? Sorry about the kitty cat.
OT: The interviewer is trying too hard. Is it an interview or a backyard bbq? Agree with UBF about that Rachel Ray voice. Bothersome.

Ah, the old "Im not sleeping just resting my eyes" excuse.....used it many a time....

Hehe. My Grampa said that all the time (in his thick Brooklyn-ese accent) "Ah'm jus' restin' moy oyes." While he was nappin' on his "reclinah."
Bless his soul, that's exactly how he died too, during a nap on his reclinah. The ideal way to go, and my Grampa was fucking awesome so he deserved it <3
Hey, daylight come and he wanna go home!
Leave the fossil aloooooooone!

Bitch has Rachel Ray Voice. And i agree about showing respect to your elders and addressing them with Mr. or Mrs. But that`s coming from someone who addresses the workers at McDonalds, who are probably 15 years younger than me with M`am and Sir.. I`ve lived in the South too long.

What Ms. Lainey said (although no doubt I am HER elder).
Like when Angelina was rubbing all up of Muhammad Ali - I really wish he could have knocked her out.
Different, but similar. And I'm feeling grumpy today, so everybody (all together now) GET OFF MY LAWN!
Gotta agree that we don't respect our old hos enough. I'm still friends with my high school English teacher, who has told me I can call him by his first name, but I feel weird calling him anything other than Mr.

Gotta make a comment: Perhaps it's just me, but Harry Belafonte is 84, and thi chick is what--27, 28, and she's calling him 'Harry'? I'm sorry, but I am old school and would've gotten the shank eye and my teefs knocked down my froat calling an elder by their first name. I still don't do it to this day. I hate when I go to the doctor's office and some young chippy is callling an older person by their first name. It really is disrespectful.
And Mr. Belafonte can take a nap or 'meditate' whenever he damn sure pleases.
What the hell is with that female newscaster's voice?
It's like listening to a scalded cat.

Love the "Carmen Jones" excerpt - dreamy. No wonder Halle Berry wanted to play Dorothy Dandrige.
Harry Belafonte was so hot, too.
OLD is relative. I have someone in my family this age who can still kick my ass.
