George Burns (born Nathan Birnbaum; January 20, 1896 – March 9, 1996) was an American comedian, actor, singer, and writer. He was one of the few entertainers whose career successfully spanned vaudeville, film, radio, and television. His arched eyebrow and cigar-smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three-quarters of a century.
When Burns was 79, he had a sudden career revival as an amiable, beloved and unusually active comedy elder statesman in the 1975 film The Sunshine Boys, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He continued to work until shortly before his death, in 1996, at the age of 100, of cardiac arrest in his home.
George Burns was born Nathan Birnbaum on January 20, 1896 in New York City, the ninth of 12 children born to Louis "Lippe" and Dorah (née Bluth) Birnbaum, Jewish immigrants who had come to the United States from Romania. Burns was a member of the First Roumanian-American congregation.
His father was a substitute cantor at the local synagogue but usually worked as a coat presser. During the influenza epidemic of 1903, Lippe Birnbaum contracted the flu and died at the age of 47. Nattie (as George was then called) went to work to help support the family, shining shoes, running errands and selling newspapers.
Major General Sir Walter Arthur George Burns GCVO, CB, DSO, OBE, KStJ, MC (January 1911 – 5 May 1997) was a British Army officer and native of Hertfordshire.
Burns was born in January 1911 and educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge. He obtained a commission in the Coldstream Guards in 1932, and served as aide-de-camp to the Viceroy of India, the Marquess of Linlithgow from 1938 to 1940.
He then held several staff posts during World War II: Adjutant 1st Battalion Coldstream Guards 1940 to 1941 (in which service he received the Military Cross), Brigade Major 9th Infantry Brigade 1941 to 1942, Support Group Guards Armoured Division 1942 and 32nd Guards Brigade 1942 to 1943.
After the end of World War II, Burns commanded the third battalion of the Coldstream Guards in Palestine from 1947 until 1950. He then served as Assistant Adjutant General at the London District Headquarters 1951 to 1952, as lieutenant colonel of the Coldstream 1952 to 1955, as commander of the 4th Guards Brigade 1955 to 1959, and as Major-General commanding the Household Brigade and General Officer Commanding London District from 1959 to 1962. In 1962, he was made a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order and received the colonelcy of the Coldstream, which he held until 1994. The previous year, he had been appointed Lord Lieutenant of Hertfordshire and served in that office for the next 25 years.
George Mason Burns (19 April 1869 – 15 August 1932) was an Australian politician.
Burns was elected to the Australian House of Representatives seat of Illawarra at the 1913 election, representing the Australian Labor Party. He lost his seat at the 1917 election.
Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra (/sᵻˈnɑːtrə/; December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, producer, and director, who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. Sinatra's music has been considered timeless by many. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Italian immigrants, he began his musical career in the swing era with Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. He found success as a solo artist after being signed by Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers". He released his first album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became one of its best known performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of From Here to Eternity and his subsequent Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He signed with Capitol Records and released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (1956), Come Fly with Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice 'n' Easy (1960).
Frank Sinatra (1915–1998) was an American singer and actor.
Sinatra may also refer to:
"Frank Sinatra" is a song by French recording duo Miss Kittin & The Hacker. It is the second single from their debut album as a duo First Album (2001). The song was originally included on the duo's 1998 EP Champagne and became an anthem of the electroclash scene. Miss Kittin included the song on her DJ mix album On the Road.
Miss Kittin explained in an interview that the song was inspired by her love of Frank Sinatra and jazz music.
"I love Frank Sinatra and the American crooners and romantic jazz in general. I was looking for a rhyme to "area" and here it came. What you don't know, is when I said "He's dead", I really thought he was... A friend told me it was funny because he's still alive... I couldn't believe it and felt guilty, especially when he died three months later..."
"Frank Sinatra" is credited as an electroclash and techno song, and is noted for its use of deadpan. In the song, Miss Kittin discusses having sex in limousines. According to Terry Sawyer of PopMatters, "In a deadpan cadence done in the accent of Ilsa the She-Wolf of The SS, Miss Kittin [...], created decadent club music for people too arch and smart for typical white label fare. It was a deader and more desolate take on tired convention of the house beat and unknown diva repeating a pithy chorus ad nauseum [sic], an alleged elevation of cliché through the detachment of kitsch.
George Francis Burns III (born July 29, 1949) is an American professional golfer who has won several tournaments at both the amateur and professional levels.
Burns was born in Brooklyn, New York. He attended the University of Maryland where he played defensive end for one season before quitting football to focus solely on golf. He turned pro in 1975.
Burns won four PGA Tour events during that phase of his career. His first win came with Ben Crenshaw at the 1979 Walt Disney World National Team Championship in Orlando. The biggest win of his career came a year later at the Bing Crosby National Pro-Am. Burns had more than 70 top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour. His best finish in a major was at the 1981 U.S. Open where Burns held a three-shot lead going into the final round before finishing T2. Burns also had a T-5 at the 1977 British Open.
After reaching the age of 50 in 1999, Burns began play on the Senior PGA Tour (now known as the Champions Tour). His best finish at that level is a T-9 at the 2000 Brickyard Classic. He lives in West Palm Beach, Florida. He has two daughters, Kelly and Eileen.

I always say, comme ci comme ca,*
And go my way, comme ci comme ca,
Since you are gone, nothing excites me.
Since you are gone, no one delights me.
And I go on, comme ci comme ca,
Midnight till dawn, comme ci comme ca,
But should we meet, that would excite me,
And should you smile, that would delight me,
I'd live again to love again,
But until then, comme ci comme ca.
It seems my friends have been complaining
They say that I've been acting rude.
But I have never liked explaining,
Which may explain my attitude.
comme ci comme ca,
comme ci comme ca,
Since you are gone, nothing excites me.
Since you are gone, no one delights me.
hmm, hmm,
tira, rirum.
But should we meet, that would excite me,
And should you smile, that would delight me,
I'd live again to love again,
But until then, comme ci comme ca.
