but Dot was with him Rike, wireimage must have better pictures. That is a great one. Nice to see him smiling. Dorothea looks wonderful too. The only ones he was smiling in were the group shots on getty. Dorothea must have some pretty high heels on. She is the same height at Jon in that picture. LOL! BTW, I wasn't trying to make any suggestions about Jon's marriage about the wedding ring thing. I was only making observations about the pictures and that was unusual because you always see him with it on when he is not on stage. Thanks for posting that pic Rike. Are there any more from wireimage? |

there are a lot of pics at wireimage. but this one I found at getty I just looked at the pics again, and they have added more since I first posted this last night. I am glad, because the ones they had posted last night he didn't look too happy. And the more recent pics, he actually looks happy to be there. |

That was wonderful. I had some time this morning; here's the transcription:
First, I'd like to thank Sonny and Cher for reuniting tonight.
You could tell that Ken cannot handle his wine; I can.
Those waves were two feet high -- I was fine.
Anyhow.
Thank you, thank you Kenneth and Maria for being such good friends, your kind introduction and your, your incredible work; be it at AMFAR or in the homeless issue with HELP USA. I'm grateful for the education and for your friendship.
And I want to give very special thanks to Mario and his wife Suzie for enlightening me, taking me through the Bronx and into Harlem. But I'd like to thank Dr. Lucy Cabrera and Julie Panabianco and everybody at the Food Bank of New York City for their hard work and for this honor.
But the truth be told, when I was asked by Mario, I was reluctant to accept this award. I feel guilty being praised for doing what brings me so much personal satisfaction. But then when I heard that 300,000 meals are being served every day across the 5 boroughs, I shook my head and at first I thought “well, this has to be a typo.”
So I called, and I asked, and I was humbled.
After going to the Bronx and seeing the food bank and its massive operation then heading to the community kitchen of Harlem where people would line up along a city block for a meal, I thought to myself how could I not lend a hand? And how could I not be part of this? This was New York City. In America. In 2009. This is unacceptable. This is, this is just unacceptable.
* fades here, there may have been more of the speech, but not on this yt*
Traditionally hardworking blue collar, even white collar families are having a hard time making ends meet. And at times like these, the problems seem overwhelming because still many people out here and outside of here want to help; sometimes they just don’t know how or who to help. And it can be hard to imagine one person can really make a difference in the face of such challenges, but here's just one statistic that blew me away: 15000 hours annually, are volunteer hours, at the food bank alone. That's just one example of people making a real difference.
The number of volunteers across America is growing. And in trying times, I believe that Americans have been there for each other. It's what I've often referred to as 'The Power of We'. There are those that say that maybe I have a romantic view of the world, and maybe I do, but I truly believe that people want to do good, and they want to help others. Perhaps there is just a little silver lining in these troubled times, and it's the motivation to see beyond ourselves, and the opportunity to look beyond our differences and truly make a difference, 'cause I believe that we are truly each other's keepers.
