Remember my pole dancing dream and Ernest Borgnine....

Thursday, August 19, 2010....


Tuesday, I wrote about a dream I had where it was between me and Ernest Borgnine for a pole dancing gig. Luckily, I won out, but in real life he's the winner.

Last night, my sister, YogaGirl, emails me this blurb from Entertainment Weekly:

Ernest Borgnine to be honored by SAG: It's about time. "Veteran actor and Oscar-winner Ernest Borgnine will be honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Screen Actors Guild during the group’s annual awards presentation on January 30, 2011. It’s about time. After all, the 93-year-old actor who won an Oscar for his heartbreaking portrayal of a loveless mama’s boy in 1955′s Marty and who’s graced both the big and small screens with his smiling, gap-toothed mug is an overlooked Hollywood treasure."

You go Ernest!

Imagine my surprise at having a dream about a random actor I've never thought about, and two days later reading a heading that he's getting a lifetime achievement award from SAG. A little bizarre, but I'm glad it wasn't his obit.

Well if he's still pole dancing at 93 I'd say he deserves it! :)

I actually saw him on a chat show a couple of months back and I too thought, "Wow, Ernest Borgnine! I thought he was dead!" I mean I'm happy he isn't dead. But you know, he seems to be from an era long ago.

Dang - so I had a dream about velociraptors last night? You don't think they will be coming around again, do you?

I saw that on the news. Are you sure you didn't win the pole dancing gig? He got his. And thankfully it wasn't his obit!

You put your thoughts out to the universe and it bought Ernest right back to you.

Ernie Borgnine is a great actor and if you ever get a chance, I highly recommend watching "Marty." Great movie!

That is so weird-- I just read about ERnie on my Google home page and thought of you! Seriously, like ten minutes ago! Huh, small world.
