But tourists (leaf-peepers) were thick on the road in their RVs and hotels full with jacked-up prices to boot. Only another nine TAAB shows to go before it is put to bed – probably for ever. I shall miss it after the best...

Fifty years ago today CBS introduced a new TV series that sharply divided American cultural opinion. Critics and intellectuals hated it, and it became for them a symbol of how far television had fallen since the so-called “golden age” of live, New York-based programs in the early days of the medium.

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem~Countdown to ExodusMoses In The Tents of Jethro Even this brief incident in Scripture has been the subject of Fine Art.

I find it hilarious that Clinton is doing light hearted talk shows and concerts like Larry King, Hollywood Squares, Opening for bands...Its proves that now the Adults are in charge at the White House , and Clinton can go play his little kid games.
