LOL chita33!
Nope she is fine as far as I know.
I was walking home with the iPod on ramdom and Ms McCoo sang for me. I had not listened to the 5th Dimension in a while and forgot how wonderful they are.
Who knows, maybe someone will have a good story. :)

Wish I had seen her in 'Showboat'. Saw the McKee. Hey, McCoo - McKee!

OK, brace yourselves. Did any of you see the 5th Dimension do "Wedding Bell Blues" on The Ed Sullivan Show?

Ah, that's better. My mother told me "What would the 5th Dimension do with a 10 year old white boy?" She always had a level head.

Ed Sullivan: Everywhere Billy turned, standing there was Marilyn with a bouquet. It was very cute.
