Dick Van Dyke on turning 100

[Imogene]

Yes, that precious man is soon turning 100. He has a new book titled “100 Rules on Turning 100”.

during his interview with Al Roker on the today show this morning, he commented there is one role that he would like to still be able to play and that is the role of Ebeneezer Scrooge lol. I can’t see him being a Scrooge. he is just such a joyful, joyful person

at any rate, I cannot see him being 100 years old this year. It’s just unbelievable to me where the years have gone and he is so busy he says singing and dancing are his passion and that is what keeps him going; he commented he is nowhere near ready to retire.

I agree with him 200%. If you have a passion, don’t give it up — just keep pushing through even if the manner in which you do it today doesn’t resemble how it looked 20 years ago.

The man has unparalleled talent. He's given us so many wonderful roles over the years.
He always seems irrepressible, and I'll bet he's the same in his private life.

Agree with above. Dick Van Dyke a great gift to all of us. A pleasure to know him all these years. He’s an example of an exceptional celebrity.

Elegant and funny at the same time. Love him.

errrm... not all wonderful... god save us from his potrayal of the chimney sweep in Mary Poppins....

However he's a lovely man in real life... and just this week he gave an interview saying that he no longer leaves the house to visit anyone, he just hasn't got the energy or the strength..

I just noticed that. I have so much trouble with this iPad. I try to double check everything, but that was one I missed. I don’t know if it’s too late for me to go in and change the title or not, but I will try.

Done! Unless it changes itself back.

Bless his heart. Happy Birthday Mr. Van Dyke.

Makes you wonder, if a Brit had started this thread using the same title, would the name have the police knocking on the door?
The police reaction to John Wright's comments beggars belief.
