Both were very nice.
Anyone here old enough to remember the Monkees?
I loved that band. Kind of a thrill to meet him.
What a gracious man.
I was impressed.
Wildhorn is exceptionally nice and interesting.
I wish I liked his work.

Micky has a radio show on CBS.
He is really funny. I enjoyed meeting him.
Anyone remember the Davey Jones Brady Bunch.
I asked Mickey if the Monkees would perform together as a band again.
His answer:
G-D, I HOPE NOT. Funny guy!
Then I saw his face, now I'm a believer!
I loved the Monkees.

Corine, you do know he was on Broadway, don't you?

Of course. Aida. But I prefer to think of him as a Monkee.
I was not a big Aida fan.
I do love one song:

Micky is very funny when you meet him.
He should do stand up.
I'm a believer.

"Hey...hey...we're the Monkies...."

I am old enough to remember the reruns....and I am just the right to remember daughter AMI Dolenz.....!

Since the Monkees chose to spell their name that way, we should all agree that we will, too.

The Monkees will perform again. I saw them many years ago and they were a lot of fun.

FindingNamo - watching Full House re-runs are we?

Actually, I don't think I've ever seen an episode of that show? Por quois?

I did see Dave Coulier do stand up in Montreal and I almost passed out from laughter. And strong Canadian beer.

Cut. That. Out.

Just realized I goofed. The sitcom in question was Boy Meets World.

One one episode, each member of the Monkees played a character and they all converged in the plot at a party and wound up singing a song.

Must remember to make CORRECT trivia references next time.

Was Mike there?

[Craig]

Posted: 5/19/05 at 10:18am

Sadly no.. it was just Davy, Micky and Peter.

[Corine2]

Mike is living off the wite out fortune.
I would love to see them all perform again.
Or I will take the last train to Clarksville.

Micky is a sweetie. He actually pinched me and called me funny.

Corine. Shoddy "research"

First, it's Wite-Out. Second, the Nesmith fortune came from Liquid Paper, not White-Out.

Liquid paper what's the difference. I call it all wite out!
Hey Craig. Can I remove that stick from your tushy?
Just a thought.

It's the difference between Coke and Pepsi... between Sprite and 7up. Call it all wite-out if you want - but if you were ever to write an article or actually speak to Michael Nesmith, I would hope you wouldn't put your foot in your mouth and talk about his Wite-Out fortune.

And I have no idea what a Tussy is. Another err?

Posted: 5/19/05 at 10:54am

Do you call your toilet paper CHARMIN?

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 5/19/05 at 11:00am

Christ, Corine. That's more an analogy of what you just did than anything Craig wrote. A responsible journalist would know, when interviewing, say, the president of Scott Facial Tissues, not to ask, "So, how did you get into the Kleenex business? Do you like Q?"

[Corine2]

Posted: 5/19/05 at 11:10am

Fine. But I would just say tissues.
PS I would ask about Forbidden Broadway before Q.

Since you missed the point, Corine. I'll explain it. There is a difference between saying tissues vs saying either kleenex or some other trademarked brand.

To go back to your original statment - you would have had to write "correction fluid" not wite-out or liquid paper if you wanted to be generic.

[Corine2]

Posted: 5/19/05 at 11:21am

Ok. Guess you are right Craig.
But I just call it Wite out, not thinking of the brand name.

Saw Micky in Aida - horrible. Met him after the show. He was nice.

So far, there was only one person I have ever felt bad about liking in person but DESPISING on stage - Stephen McKinley Henderson in Dracula. He played Van Helsing and was just the worst part of the show.
