So this is the 18th in NZ huh. Guess that means I get to wish Deevaa Happy Birthay on the right day. HAPPY DAY!<BR>
<BR>
Gala; Nice birthday poem you wrote, and you know how much I love the Ridge Poems!<BR>
<BR>
Holly; Your last two I really enjoyed. One was 'I do,' and the other 'Sometimes Love Will Find You,' Nice work

Stephen - thanks :o) I actually took my guitar (which is just a low-budget Strat copy) and plugged it (via adapter) straight into my iMac's sound in port, and then recorded it with Felt Tip Sound Studio, a nifty little single-track shareware app. Works pretty well if I don't want anything complicated, which is usually the case :o)

Titus ~ I was deeply moved by both Rockaway and Barefoot stroll. They have a raw honesty to them, and a power that is akin to looking someone in the eye when life is falling down around you.  Thank you for them.<BR>
<BR>
And I was wondering...what's your story? Are you a runaway? (of course, this is a personal question and need not be answered if it makes you uncomfortable.)<BR>
<BR>
Misti ~ You may be right. (and the job is a great challenge EVERY day. That's why I love it. There's no such thing as a 'routine' day!)<BR>

Great stuff today - <BR>
Madi, Stephen, & blue song: VERY COOL - you each have great voice and expression.  I am pulled in by the titles (ALWAYS difficult for me) and I keep being sucked in with the verse.<BR>

Did ya get the card that I left for ya?  I saw it and had to send it to you.  If you didn't get it - well, someone might be tampering with your mail.  I know I wonder why I never get mail anymore - I have surmised that it is because the postal service hates me!  I just thought it would decorate your fridge.<BR>
