Sinatra 100
THENEWYORKTIMES

New York Public Library
There are many displays of posters, records, music, articles, clothing, videos, and there are interactive features as well. There is an old jukebox and even Sinatra home movies. And during the entire exhibit Frank is heard singing so many of the songs he recorded during his life.
The end features a Frank Sinatra concert and I was mesmerized and filled with emotion. Frank Sinatra passed away in 1998 and it truly was the end of an era.

The Mob Wives Panel... that got away
I was planning to go. I wanted to go. I really really really wanted to go. I wanted to buy the books! I wanted to have my books signed! And... think of the great photo ops!
Darn snow! Darn ice! Darn slippery sidewalks and subway steps. Darn, darn, darn!
OK... so it wasn't like the blizzard of 1947, but that was the year I was born! It is one thing to look at snow through tired eyes and quite another thing to walk in snow and fall and break a hip!
