Morning...
Haven't decided on a title for June. MAY.be it will come to me before the end of the day...MAY.be NOT!
Well, I guess I finally got it now on how to log on correctly. Guess it really shouldn't have been that hard seeing as I don't have a life according to some people. LOL I should have made more time to learn this new Blogger.
Anyway, no Web, I'm not suprised at all. The comments on the Ace's guestbook are OBVIOUSLY coming out of Texas, somewhere down South. That's the "type" the band attracts. Ignorance begets ignorance.
OK...Let's try again!

What's the scoop with Ace's last night? The band was a no-show? The bar was NOT happy.
Molly
I don't know what happened with Roadhouse/ACE's last night.
Roadhouse was scheduled to appear @ the Rockin Horse Entertainment Complex/Erie County Fairgrounds earlier in the day.
I have a contact...I'll just ask?
Well, according to the Ace's manager, Roadhouse just blew them of Sat. night. Just because they had another gig during the day is no excuse. However, it was probably for the best because of the Cavs game. A phone call saying they weren't showing up would have been a nice gesture though.
Of Course...
I have a different version of what happened. It would be best described as a miscommunication.
My understanding is there was a telephone discussion or voice mail earlier in the day about the CAVS game.
It will forever be a he said/she said/he said.
Of course...no two stories are ever alike. lol
Remember when Conway was a rocker?
Z turns 32 today.
The stories are starting to smell fishy. Let's just wait and see what washes up before hurricane season?
NOT called.
They need a bass player...they are NOT the only ones.
Google BOT...enough with the Herbal Essence!
Hey Hey Hey !
Sunday is my birthday. Molly and I are going to Jewel's on Saturday night to celebrate.
JDH
We can celebrate our birthday weekend !!!!
We will keep the confetti to a minimum
ALL ARE WELCOME !!!!!
1944--D Day
Don't forget them either.
TKF - What a celebration it will be!
June 6, 007
Lawless @ ACE's tonight
JDH
I can't wait!!
ALL DRINK !!!!!!!!!!!
Big big watermelons crawling around these parts.
It's difficult to believe anything the trio at Ace's says. It amazes me, how many people claim to have witnessed everything.
does anyone else notice that negative comments about SOT have a very short shelf life on the Ace's guestbook ?
"Wishful Thinkin'"--What a great title!
Anna Kornikova--26 today
Anyone who disses Ace's fave band gets deleted right away. Seems to have been that way all along. Just shows that they have a deaf ear - in more ways than one. I haven't been to the website since last week...who needs all the b.s.? Did stop in to the bar late Sat. night and no one had the nerve to come up to say how much they can't stand me...figured they wouldn't though. Just a whole lot of talk from nameless/faceless/spineless individuals going on in that guestbook.
June 8, 007
Yippy Skippy...it's Friday!
NOT just any Friday!
Yep, Mr. Webster is on VACATION @ noon.
Lucky Mr. Webster!
HELLO SUMMERTIME!!!!
She's deciding what color I'll be painting downstairs. The "Honey Do" list begins!
Joan Rivers--74 today
1983-Gremlins--What a great movie!
Swamp Boogie Band--Legacy Village-Tonight 7:00-What a way to start vacation!
Hey Mark,
Don't just surf...speak!
Everyone is welcome to be part of the conversation. Yeppers...logging on is NOT easy. Offenders of multiple screen names have the most difficulty. The official members of the SOT squad may NEVER figure it out. LOL!
The Roadhouse "story" from last week is STILL bugging me. I don't know why...suppose it's someone is NOT telling the truth.
As ya can plainly see, I didn't get to the Friday night country. Sometimes, life gets in the way!
Legacy was AWESOME!
Mr. Webster is on VACATION...OUUU weeeeee!
June 10, 007
Morning...
The first few days of Mr. Webster's summer vacation are ALWAYS a whirlwind of activity and celebration!

He thinks he wants Air Supply ring-tones. LOL!

Alrighty then...it's Monday!
I am NO longer sharing the joy of Mr. Webster's vacation. LOL!
Did anyone else read the friday mag and see who's headlining the WGAR Country Jam this year?
Hey, I have the Friday mag at home...haven't had time to look at it though. I thought it was just an article on the country concerts coming to the area, i.e., Tim/Faith, Chesney, etc. I haven't heard any announcement on the Jam yet but isn't it usually in June? I would think it's coming soon but I haven't even heard any kind of "build up" on WGAR.
When's the last time you met someone named Wilma?
The first Monday! I think I'll do some yard work.
Graham Russell of Air Supply turns 57 today. They rule!
It's over to the right of that acticle.. Usually in July they announce the line up.. Only thing I can tell you is Montgomery Gentry is the headliner.. thats all it mentioned..that in itself is worth the $20 ticket.. lol I wasnt too impressed last year with the lineup..but I think this year will be better..
Well, I'm a big Trace fan so I loved that part last year. But the rest of the show was a bit boring.
Thats the only reason I went was for Trace
Ummm...knee deep in laundry, and too many tasks before 4:30AM.
Nakked
I haven't found anything on WGAR about the country jam?
I could jet them an email and ask for more information, but they will just dump me into the kook spam file.
Mr. Webster is completely engrossed in a 3 hour big time wresting marathon. UGGGGGGGGGGGh!
The CAVS
Ummmm...thank you Lebron for supporting the city of Cleveland, without you, we would have died a slow painful death.
Found this...
Montgomery Gentry
Has any bought Jason Aldeans new cd? I saw something on GAC last nite called UP CLose wondered if those were the songs off his new album.. I liked it ALOT ! :)
Molly and TKF - Thanks for trekking out to Jewel's. Had a blast with you guys!
Foot-note: Foot and I will be doing a lil 2 man acoustic thing this evening (Tuesday) from about 8 'till ???. It'll be over on Brookpark Rd. inside the hotel on the South side of the street, just west of the 480 entrance/exit between 130th and 150th. Don't know the name of the hotel, but the bar used to be the "Shining Star" I think.
JDH: Is it the place that's called "ICE" now? Used to be O'Malley's?
Great see you and the rest of the band at Jewel's. I'll say it a day early....Happy Birthday!!
That second statement wasn't really a question....it DID used to be called O'Malleys. lol
June 13, 007
Hey all...

Hope all your dreams and wishes come true!!
Listening to the cd now, awesome!! It might take listening to twice but it is worth buying for sure!!
John--Happy Birthday!!!
July 28--Quaker Steak--Lynyrd Skynyrd!!!--$15

Morning...TGIF
Mr. Webster will be guesting with NOT, tonight @ Dirty Cowboys.
Good God...TRIV needs to go on vacation MORE often!
"I've Always Been Crazy" is a great song!
Somebody tell me about Dirty Cowboys.
Ice Cube is 38 today. From NWA to "Are We There Yet?" Wow!

Dirty Cowboy's is amazing! There is nothing in Cleveland to compare. It's what Ace's wishes it was but will never be: bright, open, comfy, lots o' cuties, and in a nice area. It's worth the drive. Warning! $5 cover!
Tupac is either dead or 36 today.
Ace's IS in a nice area.
Ace's is in a decent neighborhood for Cleveland.
Does Dirty Cowboys have a website?
June 16, 007
NOT sure about a Dirty Cowboys website.
They have a myspace...have em in my top friends.

TODAY...is probably the BEST day of my life, and produced the BEST gift ever.
The "golden boy" is 25.
Happy Birthday to Michael!
Her baby is 6'8" now!
Barry Manilow turns 61 today.
1972--The Watergate break in. We know how that turned out.
1994--The O.J. white Bronco chase. Where were you?
FYI...
Ace's in all its glory is in the City of Brooklyn, not Cleveland!!!
Nobeer - Thanks for pointing that out. I thought everyone knew where Ace's was located....
Wow--I didn't think my area comment would raise such a fuss!
Just check out Dirty Cowboy's and you'll see what I mean.
Paul McCartney--65 today. That makes me feel very old. Wait a minute! I am.
Mr. Web, no "fuss" about the area. Just clarification.
Molly--I meant no disrespect to your home or neighborhood.
Hey--We was robbed! Quaker Steak advertised Lynyrd Skynyrd. We bought tickets. Now the ads say Skynyrd's Artimus Pyle. No Skynyrd-no go!
Absolutely no disrespect was felt at all.
Ummmm...
NOT a surprise some of the ACE's "regulars" didn't care for Silver Spur...
Oh and someone thinks the Curtis Brothers are NOT all that!
How long will the posts last on the ACE's guestbook?
So far it's OK to spout off about any band except__________.
MAY.be
Silver Spur will receive a mystery voice mail cancelling them the next time around...and then they can be banished.
Funny how that is - "diss" any band and the posts remain there for all to see....except one....Ace's wants everyone to believe only one band is worthy...
Silver Spur is just the nicest bunch of guys. They just play fast. Gotta keep up!
If anyone is interested...Rascal Flatts is releasing more tickets Tuesday morning in honor of the Cleveland Cavs being the eastern conference champs....
Imagine that!!!!
Enjoyed the review of the bands on the Ace's website. I agree with most of the observations of this anonymous person. And I liked the description of "cheesy" for The Curtis Bros. lol NOT all the time, of course. But the last time I saw them, NOT too fond of the "Just A Gigolo" rendition. Other than that, I've always enjoyed hearing them.
Molls
Would you be talking about this?...
June 19, 2007 4:42 PM EDT
Name:
Comments: List of overall best country bands-music and entertainment factored in. 1. Lawless - they have the complete package. 2. Curtis Brothers - Again the whole package, just a little too cheesy sometimes. 3. Kentucky Thunder - although a sloppy stage appearance, their music is just as good as the top 2, if not sometimes better. 4. Black River - the workhorse band of the group. 5. Tony Rio and Relentless - Very accomplished, just not a huge fan. 6. Backwoods - if you like the old country, Foot is it period. 7. Conestoga - excellent all around, just a bit hokey at points. 8. Laredo - High energy-trendy songs, just doesn't have the voices or musicians to match the rest. Their hardwork keeps them around. 9. North of Texas - could be amazing if they ever got one version of the band together for more then two shows. 10. Heartland - see above.
That be it.
And what do they all have in common?
"Watermellon Crawl"
Paula Abdul turns a lovely 45 today.
It's "Watermelon" with one L.
I don't do it every night either. Only if they plead and bitch enough. I also get to do "Sweet Child of Mine", "Purple Rain", Shook Me All Night Long" and "My Girl".
It's gotta be better than 4 or 8 bar blues in the same 2 keys all night long.
June 20, 007
JDg
Honey, I can assure you...Mr. Webster can spell "watermelon", ya know he can NOT type.
No doubt...Mr. Webster can/will address that he's "Better off with the Blues", himself. Thank you for that opportunity.
Wooooo--Touchy! Actually I meant "Sexy Tractir."
Yeah, I have to do that stuff;but I also get to do Al Green ,ZZ Top, Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Stones, Stevie Ray, Janis, Doobie Bros., Talking Heads, Wilson Pickett, and "Sea Cruise."
See why I'm better off with the blues?
Terry Funk is 63 today.
see that's what you get at ace's and any other country bar for that matter ace's canceled us too and now we don't even rate their ratings for bands! not that we care! it's too bad that just good music isn't enough what aces means by their rating is this band brings the most money and this other band brings in the 2nd most and so on!
It's "Tractor" with an O.
I get to play the Doobie Brothers as well as Ozzy Osbourne and Aerosmith. Sure we have to throw that stuff in sometimes, but we play what we like as well.
I hope I don't ruffle any feathers...just expressing my opinion, here goes. I don't care for Black River...I have seen them twice and just found them to be flat and under par. Just my opinion.
June 21, 007
tommyo
Thanks for stopping back in.
I don't know who the author of the list is...and it really doesn't matter.
EVERYONE has their favorite and their own list.
77 South as well as Roadhouse don't NEED ACE's, ya all had a full schedule without them.
In addition, to my knowledge, your band (77 South), is the ONLY "country" band that has crossed over to a weekend gig at The Savannah.
nobeerhere
My feathers are NOT ruffled...as I stated above, EVERYONE has their favorite and their own list.
The bottom line is they are ALL bar bands, working the same clubs,
playing the same songs...trying to convince themselves they are the NEXT great thing.
My Myspace has 4000 bands just like them.
OH...an overwhelming majority of the Cleveland country scene is a mutation of Heartland!
No longer linked to the Curtis Brothers...wonder how all their folks will find the blog?
Oh, that's right...they don't read it!
It's been a long time coming...was quite surprised the link from the Curtis Brothers site to the blog lasted this long.
John--Sorry, I thought it was "Folsome Prison Blues>"
An open question--Could a country band that plays line danceable old country songs make it here in Cleveland? Not the new stuff,but songs everybody remembers that accomodate the dancers. Or do we all need to hear the same tired tunes from every band?
Let me know.
The future King of England turns 25 today.
It's Folsom with no "E".
It's a great thought, but it would never work. Not enough gigs out there to be had because it's deemed "old country".
Very sad, but true.
Ace's management must be on vacation or sill sleeping off last night off.
Webster
Are you getting all this before it disappears?
ummmmmmmm...I think I'll make some ravioli
The ravioli was superb, as always.
In regards to that guest book--Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
You're right,John. It's actually "Neon MOONE."
Who else has an opinion on my band suggestion?
What in God's name hit the fan on the Ace's website?!?! Everyone MUST be on vacation over there because I can't believe those posts have stayed up this long. Web, I know you are WAY more offended by the posts referencing yourelf than he is. Ewwww.
Well, I wasn't going to go, but plans literally just changed. On my way to Ace's for wings & a little bit of Colin Dussalt. Wonder if it's safe to walk in. LOL
I'm w/ John on this one, Tim. I'd LOVE to see someone do it, but I really don't think there's a big enough market out there for an "old" country band.
It's unfortunate, but reality. (I just didn't want to say, "sad, but true" again.
;-}~~~
I like Kathy Mattea.
Let's say...first and foremost, I am NOT missing any feathers. Ya ALL have done a mighty fine job of ruffling them about.
Ummmmmmmm....Mr. Webster will be refraining from the ACE's guestbook. I can NOT say the same for myself.
Gotta ask myself about the blues crowd reading the ACE's guestbook. MANY will think...
Mark
We agree more often than ya think.
Ummmmmmm...I really liked, The TOP Ten Letterman style "Top Ten ways to tell if your band is cool" was GOOD. Really Good. I agree with 8 of them.
June 22, 007
Just for the fun of it...
I re-published the thread from the same time period last June.
It's the damn humidity...
Morning to all. I don't want to post on Ace's and get in any crossfire....besides they all read this blog too.
Colin Dussault was great last night!
EH.. its Friday. Im off to camp for the weekend and hit PutinBay tomorrow for some good ole fun LOL
Weather is beautiful and life is too short.. :)
Has country run its course at the Wiloughby Brewing Company? Check out their July schedule.
Join the Swamp Boogie Band at the Brewing Company tonight and The Savannah tomorrow.
Cyndi Lauper is 54 today!
1969--The Cuyahoga caught fire!
Two opinions from two musicians. Any thoughts from the civilians about the country oldies band?
I just found a feather in my mustache.
hey now mr webster lol lets keep this PG not R lol.. kidding..
Ya'll have a great weekend Im off to celebrate the other halfs bday.. be safe and enjoy :)~
Well...it's quiet for the time being. First time in 24 hours.
The Curtis Brothers crowd found me just fine without the link on their front page.
I'm NOT sure when they deleted the links to all the other bands.
I figure ya all found your favorite band without me.
Figured out a title for June.
The humidity and...
Here's what I got to say about the ACE's guestbook.
It's a FREE country.
Can't help it, that it's a free for ALL.
I believe I was thee ONE to coin the phrase "parking lot escapades" tagged with utilize discretion.
I support the venue, support a majority of the bands and support FREE speech.
ME and the cable guy...
Don't LIKE him...at all.
Long before I decided I didn't like the cable guy. My story was the same. There were better shows than the cable guy.
The cable guy and ME...
I don't like the cable guy, the cable doesn't like me...and that's just fine.
There are NO stray red feathers outside of my own yard...except maybe in a five star hotel in Toronto.
Any feathers found in parking lots or in undergarments are counterfeit and belong to imitators.
Ummmmmmmm....ALL my feathers are intact.
The TOP Ten Letterman style, Top Ten ways to tell if your band isn’t cool...
I will spell-check, so it won't appear in it's original format.
Top Ten ways to tell if your band isn't cool: 10: you all wear cowboy hats for photos no matter how ridiculous you look 9:You call your sound man tweakster 8:You wear shirts with no sleeves 7:You undercut prices to get gigs 6:Your bassist joke about being a child molester 5:Your named after a tire 4:You constantly tell everyone how great you are 3: your front man looks like Larry The Cable Guy 2:You organize fund raisers so you can headline 1:You always talk about the other bands behind their back ,deny it and say why can't we get along.
Ummmmmmmm...yep, I could have posted this on ACE's guestbook, or something very close.
But ummmm...didn't.
Webster
Comments: Don’t insult my readers. They are the most intelligent folks I know, next to our esteemed President, Mr. George W. Bush. And as for Lawless, well, they’re just the best thing I’ve heard since Toby Keith. My love-hate relationship with jdg makes for good publicity. And for the record, I support Aces even though I make and encourage negative comments about the bar and its patrons. It’s a dichotomy. I know that word because I have a Masters degree. Look it up if you aren’t as well-versed as I.
Ahhhhh...I wonder if the author of this remembers they authored this.
Got that right. Band bashers = Sex starved females that have no social life whatsoever, that demand the attention of local musicians because they can't get the attention that they think they deserve from co-workers, they're usually ugly as hell and weigh- in just slightly under the average orca whale.
The problem with the fake Webster post. She would not have said her readers are the most intelligent people she knows. We all know, all the "campers" read. Some of the of those "campers" are not the brightest crayons in the box.
Well, well, well!
For the first time in a long time I have to disagree with John & Mark. Not only can it be done, I'm still doing it! Granted, I do "the Crawl" on occasion, but I still stick with songs I like and in general don't hate myself for playing! I'm even going back into my Rebound Band collection to brush up on an old David Ball song they're dancing to. It's kind of odd watching them line dance to Waylon and Merle, but they're DANCING!
Mr. Web, I'm shocked that you would ask such a question since you already know the answer! You're going to help me prove it once again this Wednesday aren't you?
Ummm...If ya really don't want anyone to know your ONE of the assholes on the ACE's guestbook...stop logging on the blog every ten minutes. DAH!!!
SATURDAY NIGHT
Conestoga...Fat Boy's

Next of Kin...Jewel's Dance Hall

RELENTLESS NEWS...copied from their newsletter.
"Girl of my Dreams" is the #8 most requested song on 98.3 "The Bull"!!!!
That's #8 OVERALL. Up against George Strait, Brad Paisley, Montgomery Gentry and just behind Alan Jackson!! This all started out as basically a favor!
98.3 agreed to give us a chance by starting out playing the song every once in a while during the overnight hours. From that point, thanks to many requests, it worked it's way into drive-time and has continued to gain popularity and airtime. We can't even begin to tell you how excited we are and how much we appreciate all of you who have called in and requested our music. I heard it's getting played as much as twice an hour!!
anywhere but Ace's!!!!!
JDH
Great to see you Sat. night. Actually my son called and asked if I wanted to go see Lawless and my grandsons at the same time. I didn't hesitate. My grandsons are my life and they don't know it yet but will become avid country music fans! They loved you by the way. Of course, what's not to love? Got some great pictures. See you soon.
June 24, 007
Good Lord...it's after noon, and I'm still in my jammies.
I've been busy helping Mr. Webster with HIS MySpace.
He picked the lime green...LOL!
Foot--It will be my pleasure to join you Weds. at Ace's. I will gladly spend their money on vacation. I know Backwoods is the one true purveyor of real country in Cleveland. I meant no disrespect to a fine heritage I am proud to be a part of. I relish the opportunities you give me to play the real deal. Can we do "Lonesome,Ornery,and Mean" Wednesday?
Three musicians so far. Any dancers?
Mrs. Webster--Thank you for creating a MySpace for me! I always wanted one but didn't have a clue. You are my sweetie!
Jeff Beck is 63 today.
I totally meant no disrespect either, Foot. You know that. You are the Godfather of Cleveland Country and EVERYBODY knows it.
Unfortunately, I'll be outta town on Wed., but please do Lonesome,Ornery,and Mean. I'll be there in spirit.
June 25, 007
Monday already?
Today could prove to be interesting...the "humidity" is rolling in. It could be sticky and VERY uncomfortable by mid-week.
The ACE's guestbook is STILL intact. Has ACE's forgotten their password, changed their policy or is the guestbook administrator "unavailable"?
Interestingly, the posts, writing style, and vernacular/verbiage are WAY too familiar...and in my opinion, are NOT the usual suspects.
Yep, Monday already.
Country Jam line-up:
Mongtgomery Gentry
Little Texas
Mark Wills
Bucky Covington
Jason Michael Carroll
Cole Deggs & The Lonesome
Lee Brice
Chely Wright
Lawless???? :-)
Ticket prices went up slightly.
Went to the Rock Hall for the first time in about four years today. Lots of new stuff and missing cool older stuff. I was with a high school freshman who had never heard of David Bowie or The Ramones. Hank Wiliiams,he had no clue. This boy needs to take Pop Culture!
It's now $20 to get in.
George Michael is 44 today,and Carly Simon is 62!
Mr. Webster gave the tour to the in-laws at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I bet it was awesome!
I REMEMBER the first time he took me.
Speaking of Mr. Webster...he's a PROFESSIONAL nice guy. See above.
You are the sweety pie that I married. Love you.
We support ACE's for the opportunity it provides.
We have always supported the venue, despite it's shortcomings, and the necessity to issue frequent warnings to carry anti-bacterial lotion in your purse.
Mr. Webster is practicing Watermelon Crawl, and Lonesome,Ornery,and Mean.
JDg...is a nuance of the blog. Yeppers, I have chatted with JDg. I suppose this is the part about our love-hate relationship.
UMMM...We love em.
Get out and see the guitars...it's free! Support downtown...before it goes away.
UMMMMM...Who is Audrey, and why does she leave half naked women where ever she goes?

For those who care--Chris Benoit and his family were found dead in their Atlanta home today. Homicide is suspected.
Chris Benoit 1967-2007
I hear they're saying murder/suicide now, Mr. Web. Sad.
Is there more death in the news recently or am I just paying more attention for some reason?
Oh well... Off to TX.
June 26, 007
Yeah...I know!
Mark--Unfortunately you're right.Benoit killed them over the weekend and himself yesterday.Imagine how freaked out you'd have to be to do that.

I'd love to be a hillbilly yodel star!
I have the pleasure of joining Backwoods at Ace's tonight. A chance to play real country. Amen!

Hey All...
Yeppers...I made it to ACE's last night. As promised, we were treated to Lonesome, Ornery, and Mean. FOOT...ya are the GODFATHER!
Mr. Webster played country with JOY...always a treat!
timj and I were civil...
I guess I can embrace the concept, although it cracks me up.
Molly and I had A margarita to acknowledge the humidity, and toasted to fab vacations.
JDg was a NO SHOW...stood up AGAIN!
When the hair on the back of my neck stood up...I knew Miss AL was in the room. SERIOUSLY!
It's VERY doubtful I will be home in time, to post timely...
Curtis Brothers...Shooters in the Flats, on the river, next to the water.
Willoughby Brewing has cancelled it's country nights...I think it's reggae tonight
"Mama Tried"--"Tulsa Time"--"Ring of Fire"--"I've Always Been Crazy"--"Act Naturally"
I was in classic country heaven last night! Thank you,Foot.
Notice how many places have "smoking patios" now? The non-smokers didn't rush to the bars like they said. Just another law to take away your rights. I'm surprised they didn't call it Homeland Security.
Mr. Miyagi would be 75 today.Mel Brooks is 81.
Wax On Wax OFF.. Danielsen
Very sorry about the no-show Web. Was not feeling too well at all.
Good Lord...I am lost in the
"I'm ALMOST on vacation zone."
Chicago Chicago Chicago...I'm singing, NOT very well, but nonetheless I am.
I'm dizzy with things to do. I am just gonna believe ya all will find who ya are looking for this weekend.
Dixie Fryed is at Fat Boy's this weekend. Hugs and kisses to their drummer. He asked...I obliged.

Yippy Skippy...it's Friday.
Ummmm...The Friday before vacation could prove to be the longest day of the year.
Mr. Webster
Ya better NOT go on and on about how many Fridays you have been on vacation already. LOL!
Web, you are correct. I'm leaving tomorrow morning and today will drag on and on, I'm sure. It didn't help matters that my washing machine decided to quit working last night. Nothing like going to the laundromat at 10 PM! Not to mention the $2 per load! At least I didn't have to pay to dry. lol
Be sure and check out Dixie Fryed at Fatboys this weekend. Real country as it should be.
Chicago--Wow! Never been there. We will be right downtown and in the middle of Taste of Chicago. It'll take me miles to run this off! Chess Records here we come!
1997--Mike Tyson bites off part of Evander Holyfield's ear.
I've lost track of vacation Fridays already. I'll make it up to her in Chicago.
Well, I'm outta here. Mr. & Mrs., have a great time in Chicago!!! Drive safe.
