Seamond did - well, I don't have the memories that she does, but her last five sentences said what I wanted to perfectly. Thanks, Seamond - and Mom.

(When I was a kid, for instance, Jim Cagney was the man who helped me catch my first bluefish. I remember him for that much more than all his wonderful movies. He was some character in real life as well as on the screen. We all got used to having movie stars and extremely famous people around us. They liked it because they could relax there and not go incognito.) I read through this and just enjoyed it so very much. Knowing your love for all things Carly, it's great to see you put this episode into print. Thanks so much for sharing with us. Keep it up. I know we all love reading the MV blog.

How she told him she really had no idea who this Harry Connick Jr person was, but an excuse to see Carly, well! And so on. And then how, when Harry stepped on stage, she gasped and said, "Oh my God. That's the young man I was talking to on the plane!" Just a wee bit embarrassing! Also, don't forget that we went back to the Oyster Bar afterward for drinks "with" the band....
