I'm watching ... uh ... Manilow.

    He's on HDNet, and I passed by it and stayed there.

    You know, on the one hand, I couldn't bring myself to go to a concert of his. But ... man, he did a helluva lot of notable songs. And he IS a master showman.

    His chatter between songs is a little sickening. But there are some real gems when he starts singing. "Mandy." "Looks Like We Made It." "This One's For You." "Daybreak." Just magnificently crafted songs.

    So, yeah, guilty. I appreciate Manilow. :p

    Shotty, you should COMPLETELY go see him. I started this job about three and a half years ago in a state I'd never even visited. Found out Manilow was performing about two hours away during my first week on a day off. I bought a ticket and headed up. It was AWESOME.

    Don't worry, Write. I'll find Nine Inch Nails or something in the next hour to even it out.

    Shotty, I think you got one letter wrong in 'guys.'

    Yeah, possibly. :)

    Funny thing ... I saw him on a PBS special about a year ago, and he looked like a commercial for plastic surgery gone bad. But he looks absolutely great here.
