![]() I've never heard him other than the web page music. I was actually looking for the name of someone else who sings in the style of Sinatra who's name escapes me, and happened to stumble upon the Tom Smith web site. If you're a fan of that style of music, and are looking for an alternative to the Chairman himself, I can make these following recommendations: Michael Bublé, Michael Bublé Michael Bublé, It's Time Bobby Caldwell, Blue Condition Bobby Caldwell, Come Rain or Come Shine |

Called them and they were just like "Oh, sorry, we'll reimburse your credit card". I told them, are you really that stupid to think that I'm just worried about the money? Damn it, I wanted those flowers delivered to her work. It just goes to show you, you can't trust anybody to do a damned thing. I mean, what to hell, all they do is contact the local florist who is on their Teleflora network with the information. They take the flowers, and deliver them. You'd think they could get that right..... Sure. That's what you told her, huh? RCE Hey, I'm not dumb, I showed her the receipt!!! |

After that, all I needed to do was call them. They always did a great job. The thing is, though, that the flowers DO come from a local florist. It's just the Teleflora network. I'd bet that the local Teleflora florist did, indeed get the order, but failed to deliver. |

RCE It looks like Michael Buble sings the old classics, which would be nice for a live show, but if you want to hear someone who sounds like Frankie, why not just listen to Frankie? -- Reggie ************************************************** ************* That's my story and I am sticking to it. ************************************************** ************* |
