Cyndi Lauper's national anthem flub at the U.S. Open

My peeve to. Why don't they have a separate "Playing with Balls" channel ??"

It's called "Triple X" and sometimes you have to rent it to see it.

I understand that not everyone is a sports fan, but I really do enjoy watching something that does not directly affect me, my life, etc.

Sports are a little escape from my existence.

The past few months I enjoyed the Little League World Series, the Women's World Cup and some of the Rugby games this past weekend.

I am too worried about politics, money, war, crime and all the other things in my life at times....For a few hours I can escape my humdrum exisitence and watch people compete in things that I used to be able to do or never could do.

I was a little peeved about JEOPARDY and Wheel of Fortune not being on because of tennis, but in the grand scheme of things?


Wom,
There is a "Playing with FUZZY Balls" Network.

It's called the tennis channel?

I think I seen that one. Wasn't it renamed "Debbie Does District Colombia" ?

No, Wom, that was the House ethics committee hearing on C-Span.

Right. I thought I recognised a few of those fellows. There was Elliott, Arnold, a few other assorted congressmen.

I've had moments when I was flustered/stressed that I suddenly couldn't recall my own zip code when I was asked or gave it with the last two numbers transposed. Celebrities are human with nerves and stress and sleepless nights just like everyone else. I don't know why we expect perfection from them if we don't of ourselves.

I wonder as a safety net, a music stand with the actual sheet music for the anthem would be a good idea to have on hand. Maybe thinking about hitting some of those high notes is on a persons mind while singing the anthem.
