thanks, VB for Liberace…..I grew up watching his show. I think that is where I learned to love Classical music, Boogie Woogie, and Rock & Roll. Oh wait, that was the Dick Clark Show.
Liberace was a staple in this Polish household for years!
It wasn’t only the Grandmas that loved Liberace. I saw one of his shows when I was in my 20’s. His showmanship and talent were unbelievable. I think the thing I always liked about him is that he seemed to really enjoy what he was doing. He had that perpetual smile, even when he was deep in concentration over some complicated piece of music.
Jan, when I was about 12, we were “priviledged” to be invited over to Lee’s house (when he was away, of course) by my Uncle who was a friend. In his backyard, he had a swimming pool in the shape of a piano!!!!!! I actually got to swim in Liberace’s pool……..Woo Hoo!!!!
I’ve been around, kinda luiking. Didn’t see anything to get to talking about. Wound up guitaring and having much troublr keeping my train of…….What are we talking about, anyhow?
I have to confess as to why I have been somewhat in my duties. I have been taking a bit of my favoite herbal enhancer, the effect of which is to promote procrastination,, unawareness of time and chronic munchies. But one doesn’t much worr onw at thr timey.
Slim….love your avatar! Brilliant color on those cactus flowers!
We’ve had so much cloud cover and thundershowers that we haven’t been able to watch the stars at night. The big summer meteor shower peaks on Thursday night (12th), and we have only seen one or two meteorites previous to this. You should be able to see TONS due to the new moon and very dark sky.
On the brighter side, because of all the cloud cover and evening thundershowers, we have not been threatened by wild fires!!!! Hurray!
O what a beautiful morning.
O what a beautiful day.
I’ve got a beautiful feeling
Everything’s going my way.

I enjoy helping to improve someone’s day. It makes my day just that much more enjoyable!
