Actor Greg Grunberg

I remember that Ruth, it was hilarious. I loved Abbot & Costello when I was a kid. Pity they don't show those wonderful old movies on TV these days

[Ruth]

We have TCM ( Turner Classic Movies) on Cable TV, and they show them. We have most of their DVD's. I love them!!

Don't know if this is gonna work, cuz it is from the website, but it is kinda nice.
(Unless you are an absolute music purist, and prefer greater skill in performance.)

Thank you Shelley. I watched and listened to Greg's song "Walking in Memphis." His wife Elizabeth told him to get the words right. I thought that was cute and funny!!

It is a charity event that they are doing in Loehmamn's in Costa Mesa for epilepsy. Just look up Greg's website and you will find the details. They have corporations backing up this Greg's epilepsy work, now. That is in the video too.

Wish we could get him out here.

[Ruth]

Hi stilldancing,

I love it if you could find the link and I could listen to it. I love those songs too.

[Shelley]

Is this it?

[Shelley]

Or are you hooked on a feeling?

[Ruth]

Hi Shelley, thank you!! I love the one by Elvis Presley!! I am sure that is the one that stilldancing wanted.

The other one that stilldancing wants is "I am leaving on a Jet Plane." John Denver wrote that song. Peter, Paul and Mary also found it. Would you please find that one, Shelley? I love that song.

[Shelley]

I fixin to run to work. I'll find a better one later.
The quality is bad, the sync is whack. I am issuing a photosensitive warning as a precaution.

[Ruth]

Hi Shelley, sounds perfect to me. I love those 2 songs. Thank you for looking it up.

They are great.

[Shelley]

Sorry for not finding better. I work at an IRS building, and it's been nuts trying to tell everybody I'm ok.
