Whoa. Didn’t know that. Then looked it up to see that we had the Six Hubbies of Candi Staton. One after another. And then learned that one of the hubd was former Atlanta Brave Otis Nixon, a hero of 91-92 teams. And mind blown again to learn that, before Candi, Otis was married to Pebbles #AT40

No. John Paul Young was a normal looking solo guy. Dont know what in world it is but I do now care. You have me intrigued. I’m wondering if it is related to this Weird German dance show that had something called Fernsehballet dancers. Their performance of Popcorn was equally weird. I’ll report back

You should really go old school and get you an old mag card reader and then have your secy type up a bunch of mag punch cards and then carefully keep them in the right order while carrying them to the reader machine. I remember someone actually dropped a big stack once ugh

Everything was so hard back then. I remember long hours redlining changes on big docs by hand, with underlines and carats and strike throughs. Then if you made a mistake you needed to start that page all over again instead of just punching the compare rite button and presto

I think only thing that kept YLUML was that it spanned two partial years so it thankfully never finished as high as it otherwise would have been #AT40

Thankfully I have forgotten how to Shepherdize, whether hard copy or online. I just take whatever garbage Wiki or AI gives me and that’s good enough for me at this age ! #AT40

Looks like I am on a Boney M island by myself. But I will gladly hang out there all alone and dance ! #AT40
