miles Mike was my favorite, too. Mostly because he was a real songwriter and musician, but a little because he was from Texas. "Mary Mary" is a great song. I like this one. I am glad we have his music by which we can remember him. I was always glad he didn't cash in on the Monkees at a later date like the others did. I heard long ago that his mom invented White Out and so he was an heir of her estate. He also was a pioneer of Country Rock (before the Eagles, he lamented that he was a few years too early) music videos and had a huge production company.

Mike had a legit Texas Twang, literally and figuratively. I am told I have one when I get to talking about something I am all excited about. He wrote songs I am surprised to find he composed..."Different Drum" for instance.

Rest peacefully, Betty White...I will remember your comedic timing and skill from appearances on the Mary Tyler Moore Show in the 70s and old reruns of husband Alan Ludden's Password and To Tell The Truth. I didn't like that old ladies in Florida sit com...it made her look dumb. She was a comedic genius! She supported and was involved in charity work for animals. <3

Mare ... I agree with you about Betty White and never liked her in The Golden Girls. Unlike Betty White, yes I'm still alive and around. I crawl out from under my rock and come here every so often.

Suzi appears no less often than our mayor. Maybe she should run for election.

A high school drop out turned entrepreneur and started a huge cab company then sold it for several million. Retired when he was 40. Now he gives city contracts to his buddies and family.

Hi Siouxsie Sioux. Happy new year. xxttccxx Happy New Year to you too, Don. We've had some set backs this year in our family but worked out now. Mr. Sooz had a blood clot in his lung this past fall which scored him 2 months off work. They did every test under the sun and then some to figure out why he got it but have no clue. He's fine now; taking blood thinners. He's good now but a scary time for all of us.

Suzi, a very Happy New Year to you and your family! I'm sending extra wishes for health to your Hubble-sorry to hear of his blood clot surprise! I hope he is getting back to his regular activities. That must have been an anxious time for you and Patrick. I am very happy to see you here and it is nice to know you are a Betty White fan, as well. Much love to you!

Yes, I quite enjoyed Betty White but more so when she was on Mary Tyler Moore playing Sue Ann. Much more comedic depth to that character than the one on The Golden Girls. I just never got that show.

Rest Peacefully Harry Reid, son of Nevada. I didn't know who he was until I saw this PBS Earth Focus documentary. There are a lot of stories about Mr. Reid and he seems larger and more untamable than the Wild West itself. Keep on watching over Nevada, sir.
