It’s nice to know that late-bloomer Ernest Borgnine is making up for lost time. The Oscar-winning star of Marty, The Poseidon Adventure, and TV’s McHale’s Navy didn’t start acting until he was nearly 30, but he’s still taking on new roles today. So let’s mark his 90th birthday Wednesday with a haiku.
You stomped Sinatra,
Rode with The Wild Bunch, so we’ll
Spot you Single Guy.

Considering Mr. Borgnine’s homophobic comments last year at this time that helped derail the Brokeback Mountain ride at the Oscars, I wish him a miserable birthday. Maybe he could get a guest spot on Grey’s Anatomy as Isiah Washington’s daddy.
To Ernest Borgnine?
I am creatively stumped…
Happy Birthday, though.
You are forgetting his best role! Dominic Santini in Airwolf!
to some you’re Marty
others, you’re always McHale
for me, you’re always Cabbie
Happy Birthday!
He’s still alive? Here’s my take:
The Mummy’s Black Hole
Cabbed in from Manhattan
Glad your still here, man
slow news day, huh
Happy Birthday, Ernie!
OMG. He’s ninety! Wow, I wonder if he uses Tova’s beauty products because he doesn’t look a day over 70!! Here’s to you, Ernest. You may be my favorite over-actor.
Happy Birthday, but… I cannot forgive him for being in that MST3K Merlin crap-fest.
90 90 WOW!
How the hell do you survive?
Viagra tonight!
You sunk on a ship
Now you voice MermaidMan
On Spongebob Squarepants
OMG, Nick, you brought up Merlin’s Magical Shop of Mystical Wonders.
Will you marry me? HAHA!!
I. Cannot. Believe. EW.com would ask me to wish this old-style homophobe a happy birthday. I wish someone would strap him to a seat in front of a widescreen playing “Brokeback Mountain” so he could maybe open his mind. We deride Isaiah Washinton yet give Jabba here a free ride because he’s old and white. Shame on you, PopWatch. Shame.
“The mystical wonder is that he’s IN a movie”.
Happy Birthday. He is one fine actor. Cheers to him. Drop into my blog at http://gifts4birthday.blogspot.com for some unique birthday gift and party ideas.
