Happy 65th Birthday, Vicki Carr. Can that be possible? Magic Mountain

Can it possibly be true? The amazing Magic Mountain in Valencia may soon be history as its entire area has been purchased by developers to build new housing. Good grief! Wasn't the whole place financed and built by land developers (Newhall Land?) back in 1969 and who opened the park back in 1971? Another landmark goes to hell in a hand basket. I think this is one property the Disney folks should snap up-- if not for an amusement park, but for a gated private community like they have in Celebration, Florida. This is crazy! Well we shall see what we shall see in the coming days. It is also Vicki Carr's 65th birthday today. Vicki has had several gold records including her smash hit : :Let It Please Be Him!" I always enjoyed her rich wonderful voice! I saw some recent pics and i must tell that she looks amazing! She is so pretty! The Golden years have graced her well. Another hot day here in Los Angeles and we shall somehow get through it. I am having Tim Doran orchestrate the overture for the musical "The Ghost Who Saved Broadway" and next he is going to re-do the overture for "Skylark" I am determined to get these wonderful musicals out of the mothballs and into public view again. I also read that the 1960's health guru, Jack laLane is alive and licking hard at the age of 93. He rises every morning at 5am and bench presses fifteen hundred pounds! He has an early breakfast of fruit and egg whites! I used to watch this man exercise on television in thr 1960's!! He is simply amazing! Well other than this ir's a quiet day! So we will meet here again tomorrow!
