Museum aims to reel in more than tourists by Paul Scott Abbott Special to the Gazette An entertainment museum slated to open by fall on Hollywood Beach hopes to reel in plenty of tourists, but that’s just part of why the venture could be a boon.

Supporters see “Reel Hollywood – The Entertainment Museum of Florida” as a force to further elevate the city’s rising star in the film and television industry. Plus the museum is

expected to breathe new life into the Oceanwalk Mall and the adjoining historic beachfront resort property. Those backers include the former host of “The Newlywed Game”and the actor who portrayed Corporal Klinger on “M*A*S*H,” as well as, on the local front, a slew of public supporters and private investors. On the venture’s newly launched Web site – www.reelhollywoodmuseum.com – the museum

is being ballyhooed as “the most exciting venue to appear on the South Florida scene in decades.” But, in addition to the exhibits and interactive displays that are expected to draw tourists (and their dollars), the project also is to include a working television production studio and educational facilities.

The studio, of course, would combine with the museum’s very presence in encouraging more production work in Hollywood, while the learning programs are being seen as inspiring local students to pursue entertainment industry careers. “I personally think, if it goes according to plan, it will be a big, big asset to the city, especially for families and education,” said Dennis Pellarin, director of the City of Hollywood Office of Public Communications. Pellarin is a 25-year veteran of the production business and, in his city job, coordinates the growing number of shoots taking place in Hollywood. In just the past year and a half, films shot in Hollywood have included “Stuck on You,” “Out of Time,” “Fast and Furious 2,” “The Hours” and “All About the Benjamins.” At the same time, movie-related businesses such as lighting companies and talent agencies have been springing up. “The museum is a positive, big asset,” Pellarin said. “It just adds to the whole feeling of Hollywood and production.” That is Hollywood, Florida, of course – not the Southern California city that was becoming synonymous with talking pictures in the 1920s, when the Hollywood Beach Resort was springing up as a South Florida tourist mecca at the beachfront termiREEL HOLLYWOOD continues on page 23

Hollywood foundation gives dollars to scholars

by Paul Scott Abbott Special to the Gazette Her husband had just died of a heart attack, and Kwei Battels wasn’t sure how she was going to manage to send her three teens to college – not until a no-frills Hollywood-based scholarship program stepped in. That was in the late ‘80s. Now, all three children are in their 30s and enjoying productive careers. “There’s not one day I don’t say, ‘Thank you, God,’ for the Hollywood Florida Scholarship Foundation,” said Battels, 57, member services manager at Hollywood’s Sun Credit Union. “All this today, what the children were able to accomplish, is a credit to the scholarship foundation.” Since its inception in 1964, the Hollywood Florida Scholarship Foundation Inc. has given grants totaling some $2 million to more than 2,000 graduates of high schools in Hollywood and neighboring cities. The Battels children are but three of them. “I think probably even more so than the monetary value, the sense that you’re supported by your community

was a benefit to me,” said Lita Battels O’Neill, 32, now an environmental specialist with the Polk County Natural Resources Division, which manages more than 12,000 Central Florida acres. She graduated from ChaminadeMadonna in 1989 and used scholarship funds toward an English degree at the University of Dayton before earning a biology degree from Florida International University. Brother Loren, a 1988 Chaminade grad, majored in electrical engineering at the Dayton school and remained in Ohio, serving as a major at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Sister Lynn, a 1987 Madonna grad, got her education degree from the University of Florida and is now a nutritionist in Weston. “We are proud of each of the recipients and are grateful to have an opportunity to help educate the future of our country,” said Pat Palamara, the foundation’s current president. Pat Palamara She is wife of and bookkeeper for Dr. Arthur E. Palamara,

a Hollywood vascular surgeon, and considers herself a “professional fund-raiser.” Fund-raising events have gone by such catchy names as “Dollars for Scholars” and, most recently, a winetasting social called “Grapes for Grades,” in conjunction with the Greater Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. The all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization has virtually no expenses, which means money raised goes right toward scholarships – for as many as four years of a student’s matriculation. One of the few expenses is the $60-ayear postal box: P.O. Box 817616, Hollywood, FL 33081. The group also maintains a Web site: www.hfsfi.org. The next major fund-raising event of the Hollywood FUND-RAISER Florida Scholarship SET JAN. 29 Foundation is a H o l l y w o o d Playhouse production of “Beau Geste,” plus preshow reception and silent auction, set for Thursday, Jan. 29, at 7:30 p.m., at 2640 Washington St. Cost is $55 per person.

Travel

Prepare now – then go on vacation

SYLVIA BERMAN TRAVEL

Going on vacation is such a relaxing thought. Think again. Have you made all the arrangements at home? The important things we never seem to forget. • Have someone get our mail or have the post office hold all

mail. • Be sure to stop the newspaper (now you can do it automatically on the phone). • Arrange for someone to water your plants. • Get the car tuned up if you are driving on vacation. • Put all valuables in a safe deposit box. • Make a list of all the valuables that you are taking and leave it at home. • Reconfirm your flight reservations. • Do you have your traveler’s checks? • Does a family member have a copy of your itinerary? • Do you have a copy of all prescriptions and enough for your trip? • Bring the dog or cat to be boarded or

e encourage kids to dream in class. Frankly, it’s sometimes surprising how many schools don’t. Kids who dream learn to ask questions like “Why?” or, better, “Why not?” The ability to dream is the ability to discover personal purpose. That’s why students at Hollywood Christian School hear about God’s unique plan for their lives, and are then challenged to dream with God about all the rich possibilities. Dreaming opens up a world of joy, excitement, and transformation. Often it’s the difference between what children achieve and what they settle for.

W

make other arrangements. • Have you emptied your refrigerator? • Do you have to turn off the water to your house? • Do NOT close the curtains to the house. • Back up and shut down your computer. • Turn off the ice maker in the refrigerator. • Lock all your doors and windows and, lastly, • Check that your tickets are accurate. Head for the airport or the cruise ship and know that you really are going to have a great vacation. For more information, call Sylvia Berman at 954-966-7690.

Dermatology

Botox: secrets to success The cosmetic use of Botox has literally revolutionized the treatment of wrinkles. The results are dramatic, but natural (if done correctly) and the procedure is TODD MINARS, M.D. safe. Here are a DERMATOLOGY few tips to achieve the best results: 1. Choose the right doctor. How? Ask friends for a recommendation. Use a dermatologist who you have already seen for a skin problem (but make sure that you trust and like this person), or check these resources on the web: Allergan’s website www.botoxcosmetic.com and www.aboutskinsurgery.com) One caveat: If you have your Botox done by somebody who is not a physician, you are asking for trouble. 2.Do not fall for “low price” advertising. These ads in the back of magazines that seem too good to be true, are too good to be true. Botox is expensive to buy, and they will simply use less of it. 3. Once you’ve been treated, keep

your follow-up appointment. This is an opportunity for the doctor to do “touchups” that can make all the difference in your final result. 4. Maintain your Botox. This usually requires three treatments a year. Botox gives an immediate improvement (first week), but after a few months, the effect increases. This is for two reasons: First, the muscles that form wrinkles, smooth out with time and the skin “redrapes.” Second, the skin, now free from the muscle that was “ironing” in the line, has time to repair itself. 5. Deep lines need combination treatment. Botox cannot cure every wrinkle, but results can be enhanced by combining Botox with a second minor procedure. For instance, a great way to treat “Crow’s Feet” is to combine Botox with a very light laser peel. 6. Make Botox part of an overall plan for your skin. Wear sunscreen, start a home skin care regimen, and combine Botox with other appropriate procedures that improve the overall appearance and structure of your skin. For more information, call Dr. Todd Minars at 954-987-7512.

Gifting For The Charitably Inclined A variety of personal benefits are available from charitable giving – advantages that go well beyond just “warm feeling” and a tax deduction. Many gifts are made for purely unselfish reasons. Individuals who donate their time and talents to their church, synagogue, community organizations, educational institutions or other charitable organizations are often receptive of the idea of making monetary gifts to such charities, especially when they are shown tax-saving methods to do so. Reorganization of assets may provide greater income flow to a donor, and transferring assets to a charity eliminates taxation of them by any governmental unit. There are three popular techniques utilized in charitable giving: remainder trusts, charitable lead trust and gift annuities. Charitable Remainder Trust. A CRT is undoubtedly the most common charitable trust. In creating this arrangement, the donor places cash or assets into a trust, and receives an income stream from the property for a period of time (often the life of the donor). At the end of the period, the income stream stops and the trust property passes to the charity. The donor gets a current charitable deduction for the value of the remainder passing to the charity. A CRT is commonly used where the donor would like to benefit a charity, but does not wish to give up all the benefits from the property. CRT’s come in three basic types: The Unitrust that returns a fixed percentage of the value of the assets to the donor each year; The Annuity Trust that returns a fixed dollar amount every year regardless

of the value of the trust and the Pooled Income Fund. With the Pooled Income Fund, the donor tosses his/her contribution into a common pot of assets managed by the charity, and is entitled to a proportionate share of the income generated by the fund each year. Charitable Lead Trust. A CLT is the mirror image of a CRT, since the charity receives the income stream and the donor or his/her family eventually receives the remainder interest. In this case, the charitable deduction is based on the value of the income going to the charity. Although the donor loses the income from the property, for clients who want to reduce their death taxable estates, and “do good” too, this is a winning combination. Gift Annuities. Gift Annuities are similar to charitable remainder annuity trusts, since the donor receives an income stream for a specified period. However, unlike the annuity trust, the contribution is not held in trust through the income period but belongs to the charity making a promise to pay the annuity amount from its general assets. Implementing the concepts of charitable giving can help people obtain the optimum mix of monetary, social and moral value from their assets. Charitable giving provides important advantages that can not only help you, but also make the world a better place in which we live. Of course, this brief article is no substitute for a careful review of your unique circumstances. Before implementing any significant financial planning strategy contact your financial advisor as appropriate.

What To Eat Where

More than donuts at Dandee’s, authentic fish fry at Kelly’s and blockbuster menu, meals at Red Fish, Blue Fish Grille Happy New Year, everyone! Hope you all ate and drank your ways to oblivion so you can think about dieting. Stop! Chuck that plan for some good chow. Since we LAURA BURNICK are greeting a new SHERMAN year, I decided it's a DINING COLUMN good time to talk about greetings. Hospitality in a restaurant is what keeps me coming back. If the food is so-so and the hospitality is great, I return if I can. If the food is great and the hospitality is great, I run back. If the food is great and the hospitality is lousy, it's more Ciao than chow. There are too many good places to eat that will treat us right. One place that offers a dandy breakfast welcome is Dandee Donut Factory. Surprisingly, while the donuts are the top dogs, (try the Dandee or the cinnamon bun), Dandee’s hosts a great Breakfast Special ($2.29) for eggs and potatoes and toast. The homemade buttered bagel tastes grilled to perfection. Add a pork product for another buck and a half. Their Philly cheese steak with soda and chips works hard at being original and I liked it. ($5.99). Of Sicilian descent, owner Frank Pucine cooks up childhood Italian specialties, including the hard to find thin crusted pizza straight from their pizza oven. Nine bucks lands you an 18-inch pizza with 2 Liters of soda. (2 slices with soda is $3.69). What interests me a lot, and what I will come back for are the lunch specials like the Chicken and yellow rice, or Lasagna and much more

($5.99). Donuts and bagels range from $.79 for one to $5.99 for a dozen. After fishing for a new luncheon spot, I tried Kelly's Fish and Chips. Like Dandee’s, Kelly’s Manager Thom Endress and Sylvia Cornell make you feel welcome. So welcome, in fact, I was invited back into the kitchen to see how clean it is. Always a good thing. This cozy closed off storefront adjunct to Kelly's bar is the kind of place I like to relax in while tapping on my laptop and munching on the fresh fish. Picks: Lightly battered Cod (2 pieces: $5.75 3 for $7) comes with fries, spiced Cole slaw and a drink. Homemade New England Whole Clam Chowder is crammed with clams ($3.25-$3.75), Hush Puppies ($1.50) are tasty, and the Crab Meat in Shell with soda and slaw ($5.25) is a winner. Too chicken for fish? Try Jumbo Buffalo Chicken Wings, medium, hot with celery and blue cheese ($4). Fishing for dinner? Try Red Fish Blue Fish. You'll be glad you did. Down one of the jumbo 11-ounce signature martinis (ranges from $7 to $12); Washington Apple was my pick. Enjoy the welcoming and stellar atmosphere with live music. Wife/owner Angelique Kambouropoulos shows off her wine savvy with her extensive and well selected wine list. Let's get down to the food. The Portobello Mushroom and Goat Cheese appetizer with Balsamic Vinegar, garlic, pesto and soy ($14) is maybe the best dish I've eaten in South Florida. Another killer appetizer is the Shrimp Firecracker, served stuffed with lump crabmeat and spinach in a spring roll with sweet chili dipping

sauce ($12). A fabulous eclectic fish and sushi menu, every dish I had was good. But here are a couple of picks: Almond (crusted) Snapper over lemon herb couscous, spinach, Grand Marnier yellow tomato sugo ($21), and Black (blackened) Grouper, slightly sweet ($21). Early bird deals include soup or salad, fresh bread (the cheese bread is magnificent), potatoes or rice, dessert and coffee or tea. They range from Penne vodka ($12.95) to Almond Crusted Tilapia ($14.95) to New York Strip and Lamb Chops ($18.95). Lamb Chops, seared with honey Dijon crust over sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes ($24) are supposed to be awesome. For dessert, have the Fried Ice Cream with tempura battered, vanilla bean ice cream, homemade brownie and chocolate sauce ($7). Owner Costos, his sons Felix and Harry and Wait staff Manager Brett Abramson make you feel so welcome, you'll come back for more. Send your ‘feed’back and dining suggestions to CAFEWRITE@aol.com.

Chiropractic Health

Headaches getting you down? Do you suffer from headaches? Do you feel you are all alone? Well, it may help to know that nine out of 10 Americans suffer from headaches at DR. BRUCE MARK some time in their CHIROPRACTIC lives. These headaches occur most commonly between the ages of 22-55 and affect woman three times more than men. When most people think of headaches, they are describing one of the primary types, including: tension, cluster, or migraine. However, the great majority of headache research being performed today focuses on two subtypes that are increasing dramatically, and can be prevented. These are the cervicogenic headache and the rebound headache. The word “Cervicogenic” literally means, “Caused by the neck” Our society has become very sedentary, engaging in work at computer terminals for long hours. These activities keep us in fixed positions or postures for long period of time. This posture

creates an increase in muscle tension in the neck, upper back and scalp, and affecting the amount of pressure on the nerves that may be causing the headaches. HERE’S HELP • To help with this type of condition, you should take a break every 30 minutes to stretch the muscles of the upper back and neck through a full range of motion. • Exercise, such as low impact aerobics, can help relieve the pain associated with primary headaches. • Rebound headaches are related to the overuse of medications, both overthe-counter and prescribed. If you are taking over-the-counter medication and still getting the headaches, common sense dictates that you should discontinue. • If you are taking any prescription medication, your headaches may be related to a side-effect and you should consult your physician. Dr. Mark is presenting a workshop entitled, “Headaches: You do not have to suffer anymore!” on January 14th at 7:30 p.m. Call 954-987-2528 to reserve a seat.

Real Estate mogul named new chamber president MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Patty Asseff is a strong leader with a soft side for the arts, environment and business community. She is highly visible attending most fund-raisers and cultural activities throughout the community. Recently she was named president of the Greater Hollywood Chamber of Commerce which is one of many organizations seeking Patty’s leadership, guidance and insight. She holds home and family as her first and foremost priority followed by a long list of causes she holds close to her heart. Her and husband popular dentist Dr. Abe Asseff have been longtime Lakes residents and community activists. Hollywood Gazette is pleased to introduce Patty Asseff as the January 2004 edition’s Face-to-Face profile.

cause is closest to your heart? A. I chair The Gold Coast Clean Cities Coalition. I have also served on the Clean Fuel Florida Advisory Board. I have had many opportunities to experience the recognition and support for the implementation of alternative fuel transportation technology both in Florida and nationally. Broward County will be hosting the 2004 National Clean Cities Conference in May. Also, the South Florida Ballet is something that is

Q. As the newly appointed president of Greater Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for 2004-2005, please briefly explain to readers what your responsibilities are in this volunteer position. A. As president of the Greater of Hollywood Chamber of Commerce my responsibilities are to achieve success in whatever the Chamber endeavors. Things do not simply happen. I believe in working as a team with our Executive Director, Executive Board, Board of Directors, members and staff, creating opportunities, finding solutions, attaining goals, utilizing every Chamber resource to visualize and accomplish its mission.

December and was quite impressed. This will be a catalyst to redevelopment the 441 Corridor. They have created a spectacular project that will benefit all of Hollywood with jobs and economic growth. I respect their culture and their respect for their family and elders. THIS IS A WINNER!

Q.

How has the South Lake neighborhood where you reside changed in the last 10 years? A. The South Lake area has become very family friendly. This is an area where I can give a great pulse of what is happening. We have an old time neighborhood where everyone is improving and remodeling their properties to bring them out of obsolescence. Historic Preservation is an intrinsic value in this area, and the new homeowners are trying to make their homes larger for their families, while staying within the scope of preservation. Most the homes where built for vacationers, not for vibrant twenty first century families. The new homeowners are making a great investment that in time will bring the Hollywood Lakes area to the property value that it should be.

Q.

How does your husband Dr. Abe Asseff, tolerate and/or appreciate all of your community involvement? A. My Husband is my partner whether he is with me in person or in spirit. I guess you would call it bonding after so many years. He gives me the courage and personal strength to face and meet all challenges. Believe me, he is my greatest support system. Abe is a big believer of giving back to others in his own professional way.

Q.You

are on the South Florida Regional planning Council for the State of Florida. What is the function of this board and what is its mission? A. It has been a great honor and challenge of my appointment by the Governor to The Southeast Regional Planning Council. The purpose of this Council is to address issues facing our communities today. We serve Dade, Broward and Monroe Counties. The Council’s job is to identify the long term challenges and opportunities facing Southeast Florida and assist the Region’s leaders in developing and implementing creative strategies resulting in more prosperous and equitable communities, a healthier and cleaner environment and a more vibrant economy.

closest to my heart. We have been working on this for two and half years and it is not easy starting a ballet school and bringing in professional ballet dancers for the productions. Every year it is getting better and better. The students and parents attend the Ball before the season opens. What a great opportunity for the children to learn about The Arts, Ballet, Music and Etiquette. The dedication of Lynda DeChayne is what will help make Hollywood to be a cultural destination.

Q. What impact do you think that the Seminole Tribe’s hard Rock Resort Hotel and Casino will have on Hollywood? A. I attended the hard hat opening in the early part of

Hollywood Gazette

Q. What do you think Young Circle will look like in 10 years? A. AMAZING!!!! It will be the focal point of Hollywood and a true masterpiece of a City and Community working for the greater values of The Arts and Education. We will be a City recognized with every aspect of The Arts surrounded around an ArtsPark that represents a Community with Vision and Creativity for future generations. The City will be the Cultural Magnet that will attract the diverse culture for South Florida.

Q.

Do you plan on ever running for office again? A. Only time will tell!

Seasonal

Not your run of the (tread)mill ways to get fit in the new year by Arlene Borenstein Special to the Gazette At this time of year where holiday treats are in our mouths and New Year’s resolutions are on our minds it is difficult to find a medium between physical and mental will power. It doesn’t seem realistic to plan our weight loss resolutions at the same time we are eating delicious snowmen looking sugar cookies. It is simply a recipe for disaster. Many Americans fall into the cycle of bringing in the holidays with traditional foods and eager appetites, swiftly creating a post holiday guilt that only results into a New Year’s resolution Richard Simmons couldn’t motivate one to accomplish. So what’s the key to actually living up to our New Year’s resolutions? Alternative method exercise facilities found throughout Hollywood can be the breaks of this vicious holiday cycle. Classes such as A.L.I. (Accelerated Lifestyle Improvement) Boot Camp can only be taken on the sands of Hollywood Beach. Instructor of the class Ali explains, “My class challenges your mental strength through a physical arena which assists you in everyday activities.” The beginner-level class consists of fast pace walking or jogging in the sand for cardio endurance, abs, and strength training to “wake up” dormant muscles. His 120 minute advance-level class pushes his members to a stronger mental attitude by pushing them to their limits and beyond. “In order to progress, people can’t stay in their comfort zone. My class results are guaranteed, simply because there is no slacking off.” Ali is there to coach his members and guide them through the pain. A member of the class Edee Lipoff, of Plantation, takes the advance-level class three times a week. “It’s excellent for health and discipline. The group setting and camaraderie is what keeps you committed.” Instructor Ali’s goal is to guide his members pass their zone of comfort and challenge their mental barriers. This may seem intimidating to a spectator of the class, but members take a positive approach. Forty-eight year old Lana Fuerst comments, “Running on sand is low impact on joints.” Fuerst also added, “Ali is acclaimed to making us do everything in perfect formas to not hurt ourselves.” As far as the anti-stress benefits go fortyfour year old engineer Kelly Hardcastle says, “It’s hard to think of problems at work when you hit the fiftieth push-up.” If you are a female who never finds the time to work out, you now have no excuse thanks to Ladies’ Workout Express, an all Women’s gym located on Young Circle. Co-owner of the gym, Judy Scott reiterates, “This place is built for

Page 22

speed.” The main attraction is a guided 30 minute, hydraulic workout made to get right to the core of the muscle. One of the instructors, Christine Sperduto explained “You don’t have to adjust any machines, you are mainly working with your own weight’s resistance and most machines can work two opposing muscle groups at a time.” Besides this express workout experience, the gym also offers a variety of classes including Zumba, a new fitness craze where you exercise to the pace of salsa, hip hop and African beats. The class is so popular and the concept so effective that Scott tells us Zumba instructor Lena Pererra who also teaches seven different classes a week, has been featured in Shape, a leading Women’s fitness magazine. Instructor Sperduto explains,” It’s one of the most popular classes, and Lena is awesome. Sometimes people come just to watch her.” Another class taught by Perrera is Swingers, a lower impact aerobic class set to Frank Sinatra followed by a thirty minute stretching class. If you are still not convinced and you are looking for a more spiritual approach, The Goddess Store on Harrison St. is just for you. The studio offers many Yoga classes including Deva Yogalates where the art of yoga, pilates, belly dance and body strengthening techniques is combined to enhance the God or Goddess within you. Zen Body Sculpting is a combination of oriental, Middle Eastern, and jazz dance with yoga, Tai Chi and deep breathing techniques in order to sculpt your body. Whether it is running on the sand, dancing to an rythmic dance routine or getting in tune with your body and Maja, the girl from the Nile, mind you are now a few steps closer to teaches belly finally achieving your New Year’s dancing at the goals. Don’t allow your January 2004 Goddesss Store resolution to become your January on downtown 2005 resolution, try an alternative Hollywood’s Harrison street. method that works for you. Who PHOTO BY ROBIN knows, this can very well be your best MEADOWS year yet!

REEL HOLLYWOOD Continued from page 1

nus of Hollywood Boulevard.. The resort property has undergone renovations and is now operated as a Ramada Inn, while Oceanwalk, opened in 1988, has been at a loss for tenants in recent years. The 10-year lease deal for the 50,000-square-foot museum, buoyed by $625,000 in site improvement funding from the Hollywood Beach Community Redevelopment Association, was so spectacular that the South Florida Business Journal recently cited the law firm of Becker & Poliakoff with an award for it. Becker & Poliakoff attorney Alan B. Koslow is corporate counsel and secretarytreasurer of Reel Hollywood, and it was during a charity golf event a year ago that Koslow first suggested locating the museum in Hollywood to Jamie Farr (Klinger of “M*A*S*H”).

January 2004

Koslow’s practice specializes in entertainment and gaming, and he was involved in the film permit process in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s when he hung his shingle in the Hollywood City Attorney’s Office. According to Koslow, Farr, who heads the museum’s advisory board, was among those looking throughout the nation for the right site for such a facility. Farr, golfing in the same foursome as Koslow, said Florida’s West Coast was being considered, and, as Koslow recalled, “I said, ‘That’s ridiculous. We ought to do it in Hollywood.’” The chief executive officer and president of Reel Hollywood, Larry

Donizetti, who lives in Tarpon Springs in the Tampa Bay area, said the Hollywood Beach site is “a dynamite location,” centrally located in South Florida and a short trolley ride up Ocean Drive from the Westin Diplomat Resort and Spa. Donizetti’s longtime business partner, Bob Eubanks, is a veritable mogul of the game show industry and serves as Reel Hollywood’s chairman of the board, so, not surprisingly, the museum is to include what Donizetti, a veteran celebrity marketing executive, described as “the” game show hall of fame. Although Donizetti is hesitant to reveal what is among the vast memo-

rabilia already collected, he did disclose that a “M*A*S*H” exhibit may be expected. Plans also call for classrooms, a “screening room” theater and a “Hollywood Broadwalk of Fame” featuring celebrities’ names in ground plaques. A fundraising reception was held in November, and Donizetti is continuing to focus on securing sponsorships to underwrite a budget estimated at $2.5 million. Meanwhile, at the site, a curator is being brought aboard and workers are trying to turn the space into a reflection of the vision shown in Hollywood architect Joseph B. Kaller’s renderings.

Have a few smiles --- and then VOTE “Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.” --Mark Twain Well, here it is, a new year and with it HERB SIEGEL arrives the fast CONTRIBUTING approaching electionCOLUMNIST times, both local and national. A candidate for public office, among other traits, has to have a thick skin because no category of humans on the face of this earth has to take the barbs, hits, sarcasms, and general bashing as do the politicians. So, to start the season off in a more light-hearted move before we go to the polls, I herewith offer a few commentaries (like the one at the top of this column) and observations from the past about this oft-maligned group. --When Edward Everett Hale was Chaplain of the Senate (nineteenth century), someone asked him, “Do you pray for the senators, Dr. Hale?” “No,” he replied, “I look at the senators and pray for the country.” -- “Have you ever seen a candidate talking to a rich person on television?”---Art Buchwald -- “The short memories of American voters is what keeps our politicians in office.”---Will Rogers

-- “Congress is so strange. A man gets up to speak and says nothing. Nobody listens ---and then everybody disagrees.”---Boris Marshalov -- “Give Bill a second term, and Al Gore and I will be turned loose to do what we really want to do.”--Hillary Clinton speaking at a Democratic fund-raiser. (Say what, Hillary?) -- “I'm glad I'm not Brezhnev. Being the Russian leader in the Kremlin, you never know if someone's tape-recording what you say.”--President Richard Nixon -- “Who are these guys?”--Vice President Al Gore referring to the busts of Jefferson, Washington, Franklin, and the Marquis de Lafayette on a televised tour of Monticello, home of Thomas Jefferson, as CNN cameras rolled. --Dan Quayle (extending his hand during a campaign stop at Hardees): “I'm Dan Quayle. Who are you?” Woman: “I'm your Secret Service Agent.” Getting somewhat serious: -- “Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.”--George Jean Nathan
