What a shock. I really though Red was on the mend. The family will be kept in our thoughts.

...he was happy to communicate with fans he didn't know...
I spoke with the man several times in St Louis and I'd swear he had known me for years. One of the wittiest people I've known.

Trucountry was on last week (the 13th). Dickie Overby was the steeler. On Saturday, 'Branson on the Road' was one of the performers on Midwest Country.

I really don't watch Midwest anymore -- there is no comparison with Marty and Trucountry (when it's on).

Thanks Barry and Joey for the input. This is a fascinating bio/documentary of her. It sure humanizes the lady and I now have developed a lot more respect for her.

She's a fighter.

It's just stopped so it can download more data from youtube. Are you on a slow web (or dialup)?

If you will click the 'pause' button and do something else until it is completely downloaded, it should'nt do that.

There should be some great talent before the show ends this summer--there always is. I personally really like Howie. I think he will add a lot of humor to the show and I like comedy.
