FREE, FUN, MELODRAMA in the Park July 12 - 14 at Wagner Park
The Salami Opera Company is about to fall apart in the dusty hamlet of Desert Rat in the Arizona Territory. And that foul villain, Baron Wolfgang von Wolfpack, knows that the prima donna, Alma Pumpernickle, is about to inherit a fortune in gold mines. He'd force her to marry him at once except that she has no title, and the family pride prevents him from marrying a commoner. To solve his dilemma, he enlists the aid of a notorious confidence woman, Lily Liverspot. It is she who discovers that the young nobleman, Count Omitt, is living incognito as Billy Bright, a composer so poor he cannot afford a piano, so he hums. Lily, through shady means, schemes to have the young people married so Alma will have a title. After an annulment, Wolfpack will be able to marry her and claim her unsuspected wealth. Wagner Park – 26th St. and Flint Ave. Sponsored by CATS Theater 7:30 pm Nightly • FREE! For latest details, call 775-2685!

Chick Talk Guest this Saturday demonstrates a new EASY and affordable way to send
VIDEO EMAILS.
Imaging hitting "record", recording an email with a simple to use web cam, then hitting SEND, and your video email goes out to your friends, or family, or customers. Simple! And VERY affordable. Tiffany Hurd is our guest on CHICK TALK this Saturday at 4:00. She will tell us about it, show us how easy it is to use, and explain the benefits of this new technology. Chick Talk is a live radio talk program on FoxTalk 950 (am) from 4:00 to 5:00 on Saturdays. This program is also seen at the same time on SuddenLink cable Channel 9. If you have cable, you can even WATCH IT! Tune in and learn. You can also call us and tell us what you think or ask your questions at 770-5950. (Pictured above is an actual email we made as a test. The quality is good and the message is clear.) That's Tiffany and me in the background.
