rosemary clooney had quite a few hits in the early to mid 50's."mambo italiano","commana my house"and i think "this old house".very big talent and a very beautiful woman when she was young.i'll miss her too.
jond,you're not off base at all.williams made great music with that bat;nobody made it sing like him.too bad that the "yankees" couldn't rescue him from "beantown",like they did "ruth"he deserved better than to play in that dump.
r.i.p. ted.you were a class act.thanks for reminder jond.
