I'm sure that the TV Guide(when it went to press) wouldn't know when there were hockey games scheduled.paulsonj72https://www.blogger.com/profile/18118231322032199900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042603612494762084.post-14811406928595777652014-05-08T15:31:30.479-04:002014-05-08T15:31:30.479-04:00Interesting, as I'm reading that issue myself ...Interesting, as I'm reading that issue myself this week. Not sure if you caught this or not, but near the end of the CLC article, she mentions turning 32 at the end of the year (1981) - I usually like to follow up after reading and turns out (according to Wikipedia at least) she was actually turning 37 at the end of 1981. But, surprising still as she didn't do much after That's Incredible, but I also enjoyed her work on Battle of the Network Stars. She looked great for being 32, and even better for 37. Not sure if those in the entertainment business can really get away with the age-subtracting like they did back then, given the Internets and stuff...<br /><br />Also, in reading the Mare Winningham piece, prompted me to try and find her Gong Show appearance on youtube, where, in fact, there it was. She was good, really good. A lovely rendition of "Here, There & Everywhere" on acoustic guitar, worth checking out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042603612494762084.post-91661607461484193822014-05-05T22:27:12.318-04:002014-05-05T22:27:12.318-04:00Yes - I'm beginning to think that she was the ...Yes - I'm beginning to think that she <i>was</i> the reason I saved that issue...Mitchell Hadleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08695771505209080030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042603612494762084.post-83256009782033730502014-05-03T18:20:21.272-04:002014-05-03T18:20:21.272-04:00Cathy Lee Crosby is one of the reasons I collected...Cathy Lee Crosby is one of the reasons I collected so many "Battle of the Network Stars" competitions. She definitely had the rare combination of classy and sexy. David Hofstedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15288510542472710879noreply@blogger.com
