1/29/07 I got phone call from one of the Quinto Sisters
last night. It was a very nice surprise. We talked for a few
minutes. It is hard for me to remember all the details,
because I was thinking to myself, "I can't not wait to
tell Cris, Dave, Vince, Ba (Trisha) and the others that
one of the Quinto Sisters called me.". She said that she liked
my site and that she was trying to find some more media
for The Quinto Sisters web site. I hope she finds some
more stuff. It would be nice to see.
1/24/07 I am working on adding a My Farovite Music section
to my site.
1/21/07 I found the coolest web site today. It is the Quinto
Sisters Web Site. It has pics, vidieo, and music of the
Quinto Sisters. You can even listen to the entire Holly
Jolly Christmas album. For those who do not know it is
tradition, in the Skelley family, to listen to the Quinto
Sisters at Christmas time. Most of the family has some
memories associated with this album. In alot of our VHS
home movies you can hear the Quinto Sisters in the back
ground. Still trying to get Laura on the Quinto Sisters
band wagon, but I don't think it's happening. Anyway it made
my week finding this site. If you want to visit the Quinto
Sisters web stite the link is below.

1/15/07 Went to see Styx at Wild Bill's in Duluth, on the 12th.
I was only 3 to 4 feet from the stage. The show was good, about 1 hour
45 minutes long. The place was packed. A bunch drunk women were
there. I guess that's what happens when the doors open at 7:00
and the main band doesn't start until 10:30.
1/02/07 I got the two cool presents from Rick on the Skelley
Family After Christmas Chritmas Day. One was a nice Betty
Page Calendar. The other was an Ultraman DVD collection.
I didnot even know Ultraman was on DVD. Ultraman and Speed
Racer were my thing when I was a kid. I would get up at
6:00 am on saturday mornings just to watch them. I watched
most of the episodes on the DVD. The quaility was pretty
good. On some of them the actors will start to speak Japanese,
for a few seconds, with sub titles underneath. I think this
happens because the English voice over verions may have gotten
damaged over the years. So, they placed in the Japanese versions
where the damaged English parts were. They could have redubbed
the sections, but they would never get the voices to match. So,
how they did it works out ok. After watching the dvd I realized
some the story lines are pretty good, even from an adults view point.
I would recommend The Ultraman DVD Box Set.

2/15/07 Last Friday night I saw Kansas in concert at Wild Bills.
My elbows were on the stage whole show. Getting there at seven payed
off. It was wierd because I could see the play list they have taped
to the stage floor, so I knew the next song they were going to play.
I got about handed a pick buy the guitarest Rich Williams. It was
a good show.
2/10/07 I added a new original song to my song page. It is called
Computer Nerd. Some family members and I recorded it. We call
ourselves, The Uber Aduio Experience.
2/02/07 I made a My Original Song Page on my Bellsouth web page.
It has a song I made on it called "I Wish I Was A Rodent". It is
nothing too special, just some thing I put together one afternoon.
It is on my main page. I wrote the song using the free Audacity
music creator software. It is pretty good software and the price is
right. You can find it on my links page. I am also thinking about
writing a new song.
