Thank you MDC (Mes Deux Cents) for your thought process that led to this posting.
Just So You Know
Let me start this by saying if at any time you read a message that compels you to a response, by all means... feel free to continue the learning. You DO NOT have to leave your real name or any name for that matter. When you click "post a comment" or however it reads, you have 3 options. Once on the actual comments page, you'll see prior replies as well. Then there's the 'leave a comment' field. Under that are CAPTCHA and 'choose an identity' (name) options. CAPTCHA is designed to slam SPAM as well as let me know a human is posting vs. a computer generated response. Again, I do not consume beef nor pork so SPAM is not welcomed. Even a photograph of it bothers me. Ok, not really but you get my point and hence you will see the moderation message when you've finalized your post. The identity/name options are as follows:
1) Log-in using (drop down menu for those registered with those services)
2) Nickname and URL - allows you to choose any name and/or link your site to it
3) Anonymous (you can use it but I still have the right to decide if it gets published publicly or not - GOOD FOR ME - YAY!!)
So there ya go. Send me $49.99 if you use these instructions in your own BlogSpot. Cash, cashier's check, money order and Western Union accepted 24/7. :D

Lady Di,
ReplyDeleteYay! I hope I can see Savion Glover dance live one day.
You are just the person who I would want to see him MDC. I know you would come back with such a awesome Blog post about it. That Sammy Davis video, man, I watched it 4 times in a ROW!!
ReplyDeleteI also would love to see Savion Glover dance live as well. Gregory Hines came to my area some years ago and I did not hear about it in time. Some months later he died. He is the reason that no matter what I am doing, I go see my legends. I remember everyone I thought I was pushy about seeing Luther in September 2002. Then by May 2003 he had his stroke. If it is an entertainer you really like, just go see them when you can because you just don't know. Especially true entertainers. We don't have as many anymore.
ReplyDeleteYep Pound, I did get to see Luther live 2 times and boy do I miss his music very much. 2 shows I will never, ever forget. Also, even got to see Maurice White (EW&F for the visitors) from front row back in the day. We called out "Reecy" and he looked and pointed at us with a HUGE grin. Like we knew him and ish. AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
ReplyDeleteShaggy had performed with James a wee bit before his death and they have a nice memory story from JB stopping in Shaggy's dressing room as well as the whole Might of the Proms tour with him.
Pound if you do get to see Savion live, please come let me know. What's he up to now??
