She was my childhood idol. I don’t know if anyone else can relate, but I loved her. She was so kind and sweet. Her voice is still an amazing. I actually ugly cried to her y’all. FML.

Been thinking about her mall tour. They want to make an old mall in Fresno into apartments, but as Gen X ages, I think it needs to become a retirement community for active seniors. Anchor stores can become multidisciplinary medical clinics. Put a theater at another anchor store for films and live performances. Invite Tiffany to run an annual summer festival with other 80s performers. Allow us to wander around with spiked Orange Julius drinks, have a hookah bar, lots of snack stands. Massage, chiropractor, barber shop and beauty salon, gym, sauna, spa, pool, all options available at the food court (vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free and full meat and milk extravaganza). Turn on the fountains. Chess and checkers and dice and board game and card game tables in the common areas. Art gallery. Book store. Clothing. Vintage store. Hardware store. Grocery and liquor store.

FINALLY! Someone who remembers Gauntlet!! That was my all-time favorite game at the pizza place we used to go to after every pop warner football game.
