I must have missed that episode of American Dream; good show. Quality never seems to stay on the air long thought.

I've heard of that book before, it's a very intriguing title.

Well, much success to mrs. Arie. I've got all 3 albums.

I'd like to catch the play if I can get to see her performance in time. She's the real thing. We need her kind of energy in entertainment to keep it honest.
