    Bess,
    What did you have to do to get a hold of this shot? Spare no details.

    Saw him on the street the other day. He’s grown about 3 inches since that picture and added a lot of grey hair. Now looks like Benjamin Button at age 10.

    @1: Sorry, nothing juicy: Charlie posted it on his FB page.
    Caption:
    Young Charlie Gasparino, circa 1965; Even then he was obsessed with the TV. “Who’s this Cronkite prick? He think he knows than me? Hey Walter what you got? No, what you GOT? You don’t got what I got….”

    I see what occurred here. Pulled the ol’ “I’m going to sleep in late, if you don’t mind.” Chuck took off for work, and you rummaged through those old Bertoli boxes, sifting through photos of Adidas jump suits, a-shirts, and captured meat delicacies from Lavarone Bros.
    Sneaky, Levin. Sneaky.

    The black socks say, “I feel dashing and handsome in Garanimals.”, but the white undershirt says, “If you say anything disrespectful about HowdyDoody, I will chew your goddamn kneecaps off.”

    I like how his book has not been released yet but is at 34% off.
    Related, 576 pages??? Did he use 48-pt font, double-spaced?

  31. Posted by guest | October 13, 2009 at 3:00 PM

    Bess,
    Can you please add “Sensy” to the tags? Or perhaps, “It Moved?” Because it did.

    Can’t believe that no one’s commented on that impressive little banana in his shorts.

  37. Posted by Perkins Maxwell | October 13, 2009 at 3:21 PM

    @cluzo: not only does he have a FB page (yes, scary), but a brand-new Twitter account as well now. If you want it straight from the horse’s mouth (or other bodily orifice), follow @cgasparino for daily bites of Gasparinian goodness

    Bess, it looks like you got this photo from the casting director of the original Poltergeist movie. But the casting crew wanted CG in the role of Carol Anne early on. The photo captures a young CG at an audition, about to stumble before the old-timer television, and say, “They’re here.” Heather O’Rourke replaced him soon after this failed attempt.
    And now you know the rest of the story.

    Bess you’re gonna pay for this. I told you do NOT post this. NOT cool. So, before you come over tonight, stop by Duane Reed and get some Analease. You’re gonna need it, and if things really go well so will I.

    In some parts of the world the mother sucks on the child’s man parts to calm it down. I’m guessing we’re missing pictures from the sequence?

    If you happen to see a child that looks like CNBC’s Charlie Gasparino call 911.The child though doesn’t talk much like the look-a-like.

    He does have quite the package. It is too bad he is still not that height and unable to mount a defense.
