Wonderful show by all. Penny was in great spirits and treated her audience to a very personal two way involvement( Meaning we were as much part of the show due to her interaction with us.). What a great lady. Beer (adrien) |

07 Sep 08 - 05:55 PM (#2433606) Subject: RE: Penny Lang From: Beer At the end of the show I had the opportunity to speak to Penny for a minute. At the end of the conversation I said: " By the way, I have something for you". I handed her a c/d of Bruce. You should have see her eyes light up. Her exact words were: " He's done it, fantastic, how much is it". Naturally there was no charge, but she thanked me several times. Bruce, if you read this I think you are going to make a very fine lady very happy. |

The message read, "A warm hand on your opening." The MC whom I knew read it to the audience. I wonder if she's forgiven me for that? |
