The Lifetime Achievement (SAG)Award Goes To Ernest Borgnine


Ernest Borgnine was awarded the Lifetime Achievement award by SAG at their 17th Annual gala. SAG stands for Screen Actors Guild ( i.e. Union Actors). For most younger folks the most recent film he just stared in was “RED”.  Tim Connelly who presented the award to Mr. Borgnine, joking referred to him starting in the new AARP film. It was just recently released on DVD. It’s now available on Apple TV and Netflix.   I will be ordering it soon! Click here for the trailer of RED.

Congratulations and many thanks for a human called Ernest Borgnine. Glory be to God. I have always had an older person though out my life. Who has, always help make me laugh, on my journey called "life"; (funny thing, they all know Jesus and most are still alive today, Amen). Well, Mr. Borgnine, you are included in this group. Especially whenever I watched McHale’s Navy. 
Ernest Borgnine has acted in over 160 films. He was encouraged by his mother to act. After returning from serving in the Navy for over ten years.  Side note; I just found out he has personally visited every Veteran’s Hospital in the United States of American.
My favorite role beside McHale’s Navy was his role in the film “Escape for New York City”. Remember? Circa 1981. He was the Taxi Driver. Click here for the trailer if your memory is fading.
Ernie still acting at 94 and entertaining us all.  God will give you a long and happy life too!  Happy belated Birthday Ernie and thanks for your acting skills, the many memories you have given and continue to give us all.  Amen.
