rosemary clooney show

 in the morning i watched a DVD, a recent purchase. it was songs from the Rosemary Clooney show. i guess this is why she is name-checked at the end of the movie 'grease'. had to ask my parents who she was, as this was before George became famous. looks like the disc was produced about two years after she died. i also liked the interviews in it, more so with those i knew- her brother, Nick, and nephew, George. there were also interviews with her five kids but i didn't recognize any of them. there was mention of her guest starring on the TV show 'ER', but not any clips from it. this was a weird path on getting me here, going back to New Ulm of all places. i have a disc of songs by the concord singers, and was googling their other discs and it led to finding out there was a record label called concord, and rosemary was signed to it. i wanted to get it down to ordering just one audio disc, then found this video disc and decided this was a better idea. there wasn't much on the docket for the day, i also got to re-copying notes, sweeping the floor, and running the paper shredder. in the evening i did my income taxes online with Jackson Hewitt, both federal and state. i checked over what i entered and this made a difference. at first i was disappointed about owing on the federal return for the second straight year but i checked what the completed forms said and corrected my reported income. this led to a small federal refund. the state refund was much more. this was in the evening, then after it was done i did the dishes. during my walks i found 84 cents.
