Thank you. You are a sweetie. If you want to get ill, I read all of the original issues on the Lennon's and Bobby and Barbara. They got pitched regularly as...

Do you still have these magazines, Diane? When I was younger and collected articles etc I was a Judy Garland and Julie Andrews fan. I started out as an Alice...
I am a Lennon Sisters and Bobby and Barbara fan as well, though I also liked Cissy with Bobby. Years ago I also liked Natalie Wood and as a result I bought...
I was a big fan of both B&B as well as the Lennons. I even saw them on Name that Tune, as a nine year old. I remember waiting for romance to develop between...

- Howdy Welkies, Speaking of Knots Landing, I did notice that Michelle Lee looks very similar to Ralna...and I believe that they were both born the same year,...
Ralna was born the 19th of June and Michele the 24th both in 1942. Here are pics of both of them in their 20s, 30s and both of them now. Ralna is prettier but...
Cannot think of a way to include Welk Ladies here but with the mention of MIchelle Lee...she played Dottie West in the movie on her life and I was amazed at...
Hi Vicky - I agree Michele was so good in the movie Dottie West Story and she was so happy she could sing so many songs during a time when movies with music...
Maybe this is one of those "six degrees of separation" things. I saw Mary Lou at the same summer theater as Dottie West. Michelle Lee's ex-husband James ...

Due to pledge WEEKS, until last night we had not had any shows from the new season here. Lo and behold we got the one where Dick Dale was interviewed. I put...
I'm glad you finally got a new show, Vicky, well a new old show with the new format. I'm trying to remember what Bobby and Cissy danced to on that show....
Hi Margie - Since this isn't a Welk topic, I'm not sure we should continue this on the group but so far Joshua hasn't told us to stop. :-) I do watch Knots ...

Linda Sue, I do not remember the song Bobby and Cissy danced to and I just saw it last night. I just remember that it was a ballroom type dance and she wore...
Barbara Mandrell didn't have a part in the Dottie West movie, Vicky. Her and the others, oh yes Kenny Rogers too just each talked about Dottie in various parts...
That is great you got exposed to so much musical theatre when you were younger, Margie. I lived on Long Island from age 10 -21 so I went into NYC often and saw...
- Howdy Welkies, So far, what I have heard regarding Mary Lou is quite interesting....I read somewhere that sometime in the 1970s, she had a bit part in the...
Linda Sue, I did not think Barbara Mandrell had a cameo in the Dottie West story but I do not even remember her talking at any point during it. I have a huge...
No, Joshua I never saw that movie or heard of it. Have you seen Love with a Twist with Ralna in it or heard her sing Both Sides now on a movie called Changes?...
I haven't seen that movie with Mary Lou, but she is credited on the Internet Movie Data Base as being uncredited in the 1999 movie The Other Sister. Seems ...
