Jerry Vale Dies at 83
I didn't see anything about this on the Internet until I saw an obscure Associated Press story on the passing of Jerry Vale. Some of you gavones may not know who Jerry Vale was, so I am providing a link to one of his fine recordings on You Tube.
Jerry was from The Bronx. He grew up poor and earned money in High School by singing in clubs in New York City. This was long before Rock & Roll. Growing up in an Italian-American family, I am familiar with his music. His popularity peaked in the 1950s, however his songs will live on in the music piped into many of your better Italian restaurants. Jerry Vale died this past weekend, at home, in his sleep. He was 83.

There are several pictures of her on-line. I think that this may be the best.
Her Art business is based at Coolum Beach. Coolum Beach is on the east coast of Australia, a little north of Brisbane.
That's all I know about her. Click the picture for a slightly larger picture...and have a great week!
How To Stop A Bully

How I stopped a bully... |
Of course, the teacher was enraged. I got in a lot of trouble. You see, this was a time when being bullied was not fully appreciated. Whatever punishment I received was worth it. I was famous for my ability to ward off bullies. If there was ever any doubt, I'd make a move toward my fly and the situation would be immediately diffused. I don't recommend this remedy for everyone. I also would not rule it out.
Use your best judgement!

More bad news for Sterling |
Being an attorney, I'm sure that Sterling and his colleagues are looking at several different angles to appeal his situation. Legal appeals take time. He doesn't have much time.
It doesn't matter.

She has plenty of pictures on the Internet. Most of them show her partying with friends. It's easy to understand that someone who looks like this would attract a lot of attention. She may be behind this, but in the case of her being featured, here, I simply stumbled upon her picture and knew that she is definitely Friday Foto material.
Still reading? Probably not.
