New on our Blogroll

We've added a few things to the blogroll.

One of my friends from church, Jessica Krajdel, is studying in Chile, where it's summertime down there. She is blogging about it in "Chilling in Chile".

As an old radio guy I've always had the deepest respect for one of the great DJ's and game show announcers, Charlie Tuna. He has a great blog at www.charlietuna.com, right on his home page. Charlie is one of those who is still embracing the new technologies.

When my wife and I decided to take up ballroom dancing, we found a great early mentor in Brittany Matthews, who tells of her very personal odyssey in Confessions of a Ballroom Dance Teacher.

All are accessible from the right hand side of the page.

Now, on a sadder note.... a while ago, we had on our page a couple of blogs from a very erudite member of our church choir named Case Wagenvoord. He was the author of the book Open Letters to George W. Bush: Letters to W from his ardent admirer Belacqua Jones. You can order this book from amazon.com by just clicking on the link. Sadly, Case passed away a few weeks ago, and even though we had some issues with his language at times, we liked what we had to say. RIP, Case.

I apologize in advance for not figuring out the appropriate way to contact you. I have a question that it seems you might be the only person on the net to possibly have the answer. I am looking for the name of an old Looney Tunes cartoon in which a man has a talking dog. The man asks him "who is the greatest baseball player that ever lived" and the dog replies "Ruth" then asks if he shoulda said Dimaggio.

I have been trying to find the name of this clip for months now and finally was lucky enough to stumble on to your site.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you might have in this matter and again, sorry for posting this inappropriately.

I believe that was in the 1958 cartoon "Dog Tales".

Dave,
Thank you for your help with this. I just wanted to give you the heads up in case anyone else ever asks...the clip I was looking for is not on the episode 'Dog Tales'. As of yet, I haven't figured out which one it is on, but I did watch Dog Tales and it was not there. Thanks anyway!

Sincerely
