Let me say at the outset - I am as big a fan of the Oprah Show as most other gals (and the occasional guy). I was a fan of the Donahue Show too. I was also a fan of Dark Shadows, Laugh-In, Mash, All in the Family, The Twilight Zone and the Carol Burnett [...]

On my bucket list…
Today I attended an anniversary celebration for Alan and Linda Fricker. They renewed the vows they took 25 years ago. I am such a fan of that kind of love and commitment. I know some folks find that to be quite a shock coming from me - the serial monogamist. But I believe in the [...]
