The best writing comes when you are inspired. <br /><br />I do obits on my page from time to time, but like someone else said, it's only when it's an entertainer who has had an influence on me. That goes for the rest of my writing as well. <br /><br />Bloggers are in a very neat little position because they have complete control over their content. You handle yours so well. I'm jealous!<br /><br />Get to us when you can, just never fully go away!

While you are 1...Pam, welcome to the cost of fame.<br /><br />While you are 110% correct in everything you said, you have to realize that the internet is an entertainment medium and the public wants to be entertained. If this upsets you, well curse you for doing such a good job. Boo Hoo that you have talent and a public that enjoys it. THAT is the price you pay for your brilliant prose. <br /><br />I believe this falls under the "Eat your vegetables. There are staving children in India" category. There a a thousand blogs out there that get 1/100th of your viewership and THOSE authors can't put two words together (like mine for example). YOU, on the other hand, have a devoted following and the NERVE to say you have a life also!!!???!!! <br />Well La-de-da miss "I am beautiful and talented so don't hate me."<br /><br />Now stop your complaining and get back to writing things. We are starving for entertainment and YOU OWE US sister.<br /><br /><br />(and keep up the good work when and when you are able)Laceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15518371151074926960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-29916033016113515982014-01-30T12:18:13.017-05:002014-01-30T12:18:13.017-05:00Thanks, Shady!Thanks, Shady!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18122952408610512684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-64531391448407421172014-01-30T12:13:11.500-05:002014-01-30T12:13:11.500-05:00P.S.

I moved to a different apartment and have had a hard time getting phone and Internet service back. I can post with my phone but it is difficult. I can do some post at work in off time, but I produce the radio broadcast of college basketball games, so I've been busy with those this past month. <br /><br />I do some post links to obits of retro oriented celebrities, but only if it is someone with a huge influence on me will I write up a tribute. I found that many people miss or never hear about the death of these people. I usually get hits on those post months after their death occurred.<br /><br />BTW, Paul Williams was cast in the movie The Loved One as a a child, but that had someone else dub his lines because he had such a low voice. Probably got Dick Beals (Speedy Alka Seltzer) because his voice never changed.Desdinovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03494190206293363835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-67295700104487538322014-01-25T02:28:03.360-05:002014-01-25T02:28:03.360-05:00Sorry- I only meant by my comment to mean that you...Sorry- I only meant by my comment to mean that you had a loyal follower- as a mark of respect and encouragement. I wrote it as soon as I heard about the divorce so of course I didn't expect a post on it, nor of the two deaths, but hoped you would have understood that when these events occurred, you were the first I thought of. I'm a teacher and am only too well aware of the demands placed on people, especially when it comes to written work. I have no need in my life to expect someone I don't know to produce comment on anything, let alone the ultimately trivial.Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17780519140837852601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-63151015563553440852014-01-25T00:37:26.311-05:002014-01-25T00:37:26.311-05:00I hear ya.

If you tried to keep track of every celebrity who dies, marries or divorces you'd be at the keyboard nonstop 24-7-365.<br /><br />I agree with you about Paul Williams. He was everywhere and always crooning "Just An Old Fashioned Love Song." After sitting through a hundred or more performances, I was sick of him and that song. <br /><br />If you're going to write about Paul Williams, make it that other Paul Williams - Mary's son - Cricket's husband - the likable police chief of Genoa City, Wisconsin. He's doing a fine job! :)Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.com
