And who knew that daughter Donna would grow up to be Shirley Temple, then turn into Alice Faye...and others??

Merrill was always nuts, but she clearly has gone over the deep end. Watch the Alice Faye clip where she won some kind of amateur 1930s Idol contest - SHE won it, and yet all she's doing is an impersonation of Miss Faye. Terrible.

Welcome twenty-four GUESTS. If one of you is Merrill, you've gone off the deep end.

I did a four-mile jog, then picked up a couple of packages, and made a nice, big halibut filet - that's only about five hundred calories and I've already burned 400, so I will have to eat something small later, but this thing was really filling.

I sent her a message last autumn, asking her if she'd like to sing in the ladies' ensemble for the Victor Herbert recordings. I didn't think she was right for any of the solo work, but I wanted to involve her. She never answered.

I did buy a slice of cake on the way home from work. However, I have not eaten it, because I can't have my cake and eat it too.

T.O.D.

I was wondering how Melody gets along with the other entertainers in show. It was always so cool when I was a kid and the older actors treated me as just another performer, and not as a kid.

The treatment was good (you would never know I just lost a tooth), as painless as possible and I'm happy to have it over!

and you didn't lose the tooth!

i'm sorry you need so much work.

Nope. I'm not good enough any more. As soon as the wedding was over, she was only to spend time with other Mormons. She grew up in my church.

They adore her - she's fun, respectful, and they, in turn, think she's amazing. And so she is.

Laura, honestly I'm a bit surprised. When we moved into our first house the Mormon's across the street were very friendly at first & then kind of cooled it once they realized we weren't going to be converted. When Bryan came along they were great. Their children were our sitters, the two youngest I've mentioned spent a lot of time at our house. When I couldn't stop a cut on Bryan's hand from bleeding it was the wife I called for help. Their Mormon friends were very helpful & no one ever again attempted a conversion. The young men in their suits didn't even stop at our door.

TCB, I say you CAN have your cake and eat it too. What kind?

Nook owners have you downloaded any books from your library? Either I'm doing something wrong or I haven't found any books I want available for downloading.
