Hello Dan.

 RW>> That's the problem. All it says is "Pledge Week"...

It's the one we've been talking about. Guide/Plus or something like
that. It's broadcast by the PBS station in San Diego and you need a TV
with Guide/Plus to see it.

 DC> Where you ever in show business?

Winneshek Theatre back in Illinois...played Stefenowski in a play
called; "Mr Roberts"  Had a few lines, but was noted for my ability to
tap out a ... --- ... (SOS) in Morse Code on the deck with a scrub
brush.

Compared to me, Redford was/is ugly. :o) 'course, I don't have red hair.

 DC>> I hadn't heard that.  Though not a big fan, I liked his humor.

 RW>> Watching someone play the pitiful drunk gets old fast. Dean Martin

 DC> I'm not so sure how much of that was really an act!

It was an act. He interviewed, seems like a hundred years ago now, on
some TV show and showed his ability to switch from sober to drunk in a
twinkling of an eye.

I had a favorite back in the late 60s that I played a lot. Nancy Sinatra
and Lee Greenwood singing some old folk songs. It got eaten once and so
I replaced it. It isn't the newest in the lot, but still my favorite.
