Re: Lawrence Welk plays Saturday eves on PBS

Ha haaaa, yeah...Bobby Burgess used to have that effect on me, but I
was finally able to appreciate even his talents.


Ok, with that, I'm out of here. I discovered newsgroups and RMMS
throught DejaNews, which was taken over by Google, which I've continued
to use to read this forum and others up to now.

Today I discovered that Google is shedding it's neutrality and giving
financial backing to a struggling political candidate in the upcoming
election, which for me is unacceptable (Okay, the candidate's not on my
team, so I guess I'm a hyppa....hippoc.......I guess I have loose
standards), which means no more gmail acct, no more googletoolbar, no
more orkut, and no more using Google to access NG's for me.

Til I discover another way to get onto this board (I really am that
unsavvy), happy squeezing and good luck to all.

my parents watched on Saturdays. It's political. It's my age. Whatever.
Just can't get around it.

Yeah, I used to feel the same way but I got in the habit of watching
it and learned to enjoy it. The "primped, prim, and perky" female
vocalists are hard to get by and some of the acts (particularly m/f
vocal duets) are really sappy, but there's good music, often. And
Floren (and occasional other guest accordionists) are really sharp.
It's often cornball and *always* polyester 70's, but I like it.
