In case you've
been wondering why no updates in the last month and access to the
message board has been inaccessable and various other peculiar happenings,
about three weeks ago the company which hosts my site decided to
move all the files to a new server and change their operating system.
No advance warning was given and of course things did not progress
uneventfully. Today is the first day I've been able to access my
files.
Things are finally settling down but it ain't over yet

|  Singing
legend Miss Peggy Lee, 81, passed away at her Bel Air home
on Monday, January 21, 2002. Her daughter, Nicki Lee Foster,
was by her side. The cause of death has preliminarily been
determined as a myocardial infarction, a result of the stroke
she suffered three years ago.
In addition to her daughter, Miss Lee is survived by her
grandchildren David Foster, Holly Foster-Wells, and Michael
Foster; and her great-grandchildren Teagan Foster, Caleb Foster
and Carter Wells.
In the George Pal Puppetoon, "Jasper in a Jam," Charlie Barnett
and Peggy Lee provide the music for a spooky, rainy night
in which Jasper takes refuge in an old pawn shop. The proprietor
is asleep... or something. The clock strikes 13... the female
figurehead on a gilded harp comes to life, singing (in Peggy
Lee's voice) "Old Man Mose is Dead"... With this introduction,
everything in the shop comes to life in an animated Jazz frenzy...
animal heads on the wall, totem poles, even the cigar indian,
who (inaccurately) throws hachets at poor Jasper.
Peggy Lee also recorded "Land
O' the Leal" which was intended to be the opening
theme song to Pal's "The Time Machine."
