Morley Safer is one of few remaining truly professional newsmen, compu-smart. Margaret Mitchell will always be remembered for her epic portrayal of the South in her novel, "Gone With the Wind." I always enjoyed Patti Page' singing, and I'm glad to see and hear her on video here. Esther Rolle was a fine actress happy face and vitality were always welcome.

For a fleeting moment I thought that you were referring to Kenneth Williams. He too was extremely witty. His participation in a BBC program entitled "Jest A Minute," along with some other clever chaps made "Jest A Minute" something to look forward to. :)

Well, I'm late as usual, but I just thought I would drop in on you today.

I always enjoy reading about the famous people whether I know about them or not. You do a great job.  Although I may not have been a big "fan" of Patti Page, I did love the song "Tennessee Waltz" 

Thank you. ~ eddie

Compu-Smart,

I remember hearing my dad talking about Patti Page when I was around 4 of 5 years old.  I loved to hear my dad sing the Tennesse Waltz and How Much is that Doggie in the Window.  My dad had a song for everything.

 Thanks for bring back some wonderful memories.  ~ Barbie Perkins
