I didn't know either that he had a stroke. My husband asked "What is wrong with Dick Clark?" I said that it sounded like he had a stroke. Wow, I did not know.

Quote You're kidding. It was not too long before New Year's last year. That's why he couldn't do the show last year, and Regis Philbin filled in.


Did anyone see him on the show last night? I don't recall seeing him, but they said he was at a desk out there for the countdown...?

Yes, we got back from the movies just in time for his first appearance. He did the countdown, and then he appeared to announce some of the acts from California every now and then. His speech was slurred, but he did pretty darned well, all things considered, I thought.

I truly had no idea. I can't even remember where I was last year for New Years Eve. I certainly wasn't paying attention to Regis. --I just looked it up and I was working on New Years Eve. Inflight from Seattle to Philly at midnight, so definitely not watching TV.

Oh well, at least he didn't die or anything. I hate it when I find out that someone I thought was alive and well has been dead for a couple of years!

I thought it was very touching and inspiring that Dick Clark had worked on his rehabilitation so much to be able to come out and perform this year. Awesome!
