She is seriously talking about wanting to go moose hunting with her. I'm beginning to think she might really be attracted to her in more ways than political. Does anybody know if Sarah Palin likes SGM? Dear God, please tell me she is not hot for EH and SSQ.

What you drink is more like Episcopal Communion Juice. Or maybe more like Irish Midleton Communion JUICE!! lol I do not think Fonda is the Devil's Sister... more like the Devil's Wife or The Devil's Daughter!!

It was of course the late great A.Burger i was referring to. And Harry i almost choked on my fine single malt with that last post of yours. Here's a thought:why can't the fundies be as devilishly funny? Is that only one of numerous points i perceive to divide the two great houses? Upmost apologies Wade for being a bit cryptic.

I think it was probably because the three chaps mentioned were 'quartet men' that made the difference,jury's still out on that one though. And Harry,i don't think you mixed up Doug with Tim,hope you weren't supping the old devil's buttermilk. Lol. Harry and Wacky, AB was divorced if i’m not wrong and it didn’t proclude him.

There have been a LOT of folks in the bidness who've been through divorce, and continue(d) to perform. (As I've not been a regular at NQC [only attended a few times], I don't really know who has or has not received a tribute from the main stage.) But they were still revered. And there are, of course, others who have divorced, and are still performing on the main stage. I'm not going to name names, but I'm sure any of my fellow posters who've been around for very long can think of a few or more.

Phil Cross seems to really be getting heavy into the choral and orchestral music...and he is doing a good job with it. Our choir is doing a Christmas contata by Phil this year titled, "Hope Has Hands." It seems very strange that NQC would render video clips of Doug Riley, Anthony Burger and Man vs. Bus guy and leave Dottie Rambo off the list. Irish Lad, what do you think is up with that? Incidentally Harry Peters and Anthony Burger took piano lessons from the same teacher in a studio upstairs over Anthony's Dad's piano and music store. Funny, same teacher, same piano, but it sure didn't sound the same when Harry Peters played it as it did when Anthony did. :-) Back to Dottie...it seems to me that country music would call someone with her obvious talent "the Queen of Country Music." Now Old Harry Peters does not believe we need "Queens of SGM." I did not enjoy hearing Dottie sing, but she sure could turn a phrase on a lyric. That alone, would qualify her to be remembered in my opinion. Harry Peters wonders if with the old school NQC people, she didn't suffer under some degree of stigma for divorcing Buck. There are people who will mark a divorcee with a big scarlett letter, "D." What say you folks?

Not sure that's true. You may not want to be involved, but from the looks of the comments on this sight, LOTS of folks want to be involved in a thread of hate. I wish it weren't so, though.

Very tastefully done i might add.

Also each email sent has an "opt out" link. You sure seem to have some sort of gripe with Phil Cross. Instead of taking cheap shots of half truths at the man, why not let it go. Look at the response at your last attempt to tear the man down, you had about a dozen posters - nobody cares to be involved in a thread of hate.
