MIMI
1903-2000

Even the most casual listener to the "Demented News" has heard the unmistakable voice of Mimi. She was a dear friend and honorary citizen of the Land of Dementia -- and, above all, a terrific sport! Throughout the years, I have accumulated hundreds of hours of audio and video tape of Mimi's antics, so she will never be forgotten.

On the "Demented News," she has impersonated everyone from Madonna to the Easter Bunny and has provided us with some profound observations on life's mysteries.
Please enjoy these audio files of some of the more memorable Mimi moments.

Unquestionably, Mimi's most hilarious work! Here is a sampling of bloopers from the recording session.

"CHONG" LISTEN!
NEVER BEFORE HEARD!
Here's a song Mimi liked to sing during her days as a nun in Waterloo, Iowa, some 90 years ago! Not quite politically correct by today's standards, but fun nonetheless.
