No Kathie Lee: August 2014

Ricky has made it into the performance finale next week! While there's no doubt the top four deserve to be where they are, Ricky is above them all. I honestly can't remember one bad performance all season. Along those lines, I don't think the judges have had one bad thing to say about him, or his dancing, from the beginning. I know there's that saying about counting chickens and all, but I'm beyond confident that Ricky will claim his rightful place atop the So You Think You Can Dance mountain!

Cheer Up!

New!

The new WWE World Heavyweight Championship! Took long enough! Love everything about it, except the red line. Detracts from the masculinity. Let's hope this is the one used for years to come!

September 16th!

Barbra's long-awaited new album of duets is being released on September 16th! I have to say, looking at the list of contributing artists, I'm underwhelmed. I was hoping for a little bit more of a contemporary feel. That said, I really enjoyed her first duets offering, and hope my preconception of this album is proven wrong.

Saved the best for last! Got to see If/Then, and meet the principles! Was like a dream to finally wait outside the stage door! Idina Menzel, Anthony Rapp, and, James Snyder were incredibly gracious and kind. These three days in New York were the best of my life so far! Hope you enjoyed the experience in pictures! Photos from my latest trip to The Big City coming soon!

The hotel where Stephanie and I stayed. The room was clean, the people were pretty nice, but we had to use a freight elevator, because the other one was out of service. Having to go back and forth at all hours, accompanied by garbage, can sure detract from the enjoyment of a stay.
