Oct 18, 10 | 7:48 pmThose were the days. Great to hear from you again. I was in AC this weekend at the Disco Ball. Really brought back memories of the greatest days back at the soap.

Dec 02, 09 | 2:13 pmWow, thanks for sharing these pictures. What really surprised me is that I am in the picture of the bus stop dancers. I am behind the person in the middle front line.
I may have some artifacts of my own to contribute.
Just went to the Disco Ball at the Taja Mahal in Atlantic City a couple of weeks ago. Three and a half hours of disco's greatest stars performing their hits from 30 years ago.
All the years I went there I never knew about who owned it or bad things that happened in and around the club. Probably becuase all I cared about was the great music, the people and dancing.
Great to see you in pictures Louie. Hope you remember me I was a big fan of yours and pain in the a** when it came to making requests.

She just passed on... She will be missed dearly. Donna may have been on the Soap TV show, I just don't recall.
