TBW Daily Diary

Sorry to hear that our little grocery store at Green and Hamilton was robbed by two armed black men last Friday morning . . . Lindsay Mills e-mailed to remind us that St. Michael's Lutheran Church, 118 State Street, will be selling carry-out soup and baked goods from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. tomorrow. The church is our polling place. Everyone--please vote . . . Suzi Marsico called to say that she does indeed remember the Four Freshmen fondly. They were a favorite group of hers back then. She and her husband, Ed, heard them in the early sixties at the old 210 Club on Walnut Street. For you youngsters, that venue was in the basement of the building now housing The Plum. We are still trying to find out where the Frigate was . . . Today's out-of-towners were two young women from Pittsburgh who discovered us on the Internet. We had a wonderful visit; I recalled some favorite haunts of mine in Steeltown during the sixties. Most of them are now gone, I was told, but La Mont is still feeding the well-heeled up on Mount Washington . . . Miss Cecilia thinks she is ready to strut the runway as a super model. She demonstrated her technique for dad's camera this morning . . . Well, yesterday was Halloween, tomorrow is Election Day. Is the spooky stuff over or is it just beginning? . . .
