WE ARE TAKING A BYE WEEK AD TO HOLD YOU OVER WE ARE POSTING LINKS TO SOME EVENTS THAT WERE DONE AROUND THIS TIME IN OUR NEARLY 15 YEAR BLOG:


IN 2005:



I went to Marla Gibbs' jazz CD listening party that was held at The Formula and had a chance to mingle and interview Ms. Gibbs who looked stunning in a dark blue pants suit. I first ran into Monica Tyson, who was over this event, to lead me to Ms. Gibbs so I could chat with her about her newfound career. So Monica lead me to her who was signing autographs of her CD, "It's Never Too Late." She stood up (She's tall--about 5' 10) and I shook her hand. It hit me then that I was about to talk to a living Tv legend. I was truly excited talking to Ms. Gibbs. So, when I asked my first question to her, I fumbled her Cd title. I said, "So, what made you decide to release your first CD, "It's About Time." YIPES! DOH! I felt so embarrassed and thought she was going to go into diva mode, but she was gracious and treated it like a comedy bit. She grabbed my forearm and said, "No, it's called, "It's Never Too Late, but, believe me, it is about time."


In 2007:
