One Year Ago In "Blog" History


Welcome once again to "One Year Ago In 'Blog' History," where you find out what happened one year ago in "blog" history. One year ago in "blog" history, McNeil presented what he still considers the very apex of his work as curator of "McNeil's Gold Medal International Emergency Exit Theatre." One year ago in "blog" history, McNeil gave us the actor Frank Converse (who once visited my hometown of Bayou La Batre while filming an episode of NBC's trucker drama MOVIN' ON) reciting "She's Leaving Home" by the Beatles. (You may "click" here to enjoy Converse's interpretation afresh.) It was so good that McNeil's work began to suffer. He announced his retirement. MGMIEETs became scarce thereafter. So a sad time. Yet one of unparalleled triumph. This has been "One Year Ago In 'Blog' History."
