NEWS BLOOPERS
Hilarious Moments In Broadcast News...
Retail Price: $9.99
Deal Price: $2.99
The straight faced seriousness of news reporters is a facade
that occasionally slips live on air, often with hilarious
results. This collection gathers together some of those
moments, offering a series of clips where things haven't quite
gone according to plan. Mishaps range from on-air bloopers,
cameras going astray, non-stop giggling at inappropriate times,
bizarre tongue-tied newscasters, and a whole lot more.

BIRTH DATE: July 15, 1946, Tucson, Arizona
BIRTH NAME: Linda Marie Ronstadt
CLAIM TO FAME: Who doesn't know Linda as one of the voices
of the 70's and 80's. She had a bunch of hits and remains
one of the all-time biggest selling female singers.

to governor Jerry Brown back in the 70's. And George Lucas
in the 80's.
She has two adopted children, Mary and Carlos
INFO: The Ronstadt Family have made important contributions
to arts and culture in the American Southwest. In fact, so
great are their contributions to the state of Arizona that
their history and influence, including wagon making,
commerce, pharmacies and, of course, music, is chronicled
within the library of the University of Arizona.

Grab one or two while they last. This is an item we made a
special purchase on and it is Below Cost! Once it sells out
it is gone forever. Makes a great Housewarming Gift too.

Diego Union-Tribune that the presence of a "Republican or
fundamental Christian" in her concert audience "can cloud
my enjoyment."
Was nominated for Broadway's 1981 Tony Award as Best Actress
(Musical) for "The Pirates of Penzance," a role she recreated
in the film version of the same title, The Pirates of Penzance.
Revealed in a late 1970s Rolling Stone magazine interview that
