Awesome. The first time I saw that was around Thanksgiving. If I remember correctly, it had more length to it because all three judges and the audience gave him a standing ovation.
At the time it brought a tear to my eye.
Thanks for the memory Stan.

I remember it being much the same for me when I heard about him a number of months ago too. Heck, I remember the first time I watched "Il Trovatore" on PBS one night, by sheer luck. The incomparable Placido Domingo, a spinto tenor (Pavarotti was a lyrical), shattered my heart with the cry in his voice for losing his beloved in one of the most twisted turns of fate ever written, and from then on I was captivated by this crazy thing called opera. Hopefully soon TCL will be bustling with us all in a fair send off of 2007.

I love this man. Were I not wed, I would throw myself at his feet.
(BTW, despite my nom de plume, I am female. Just so's ya know.)
I just got an email from Bill and he's willing to provide the books at cost. So the total, including shipping, is only $125. So we have about $345 extra bucks. (I should have mentioned earlier that Paypal charges a 3.2% transaction fee, so our total is a bit less than $470) So, refunds? Or take kulak's idea and donate the balance to Soldiers' Angels or some other group? Just let me know.
