Camelia Lissenhold, about <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2009.10.21.00.38.14308">Havana Rewind</a>: As my Capt often said, "I loved Cuba" ... I've been the piano player and the audience. Brings back many memories. Enjoyed.<BR>

Kirk, thank you for the front page pick. Sorry to be so long in thanking you for the comment :). Life is still too much of a roller coaster with health and family.<BR>
<BR>
I've come to read many times this month, but quickly get yanked offline by calls. But there are calls that I cherish, and I am grateful to you, b.k., for your unwaivering friendship in checking on me.<BR>
<BR>
Vishal, glad to see you commenting once again. Harem, your poems are ones I have recently found myself wanting to bump. Same with jack's. b.k., I never get tired of your works, new or old. Welcome, new blenderites. I'll try to do more commenting later since I have been reading the submissions ...... Rennie

Jasmine, about <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2009.10.23.00.14.10207">What Could Have Been</a>:<BR>
<BR>
Just remember that our memory of the<BR>
past is often better than it really <BR>
was -  Focus on the Future instead,<BR>
it may outshine "what could have been".<BR>
<BR>
Great Piece.  Wonderful Writing.<BR>

Rens; I just had att in this morning. They gave me a new box and now I can harness those gerbils. Funny they said if I lived a little closer to the grocery store the gerbils would run twice as fast. Gotta feed those critters I guess. haa<BR>

Hey Falcon Ria,<BR>
Thanks for commenting on my work.<BR>
<BR>
Everyone is entitled to their own <BR>
opinion.  Our perceptions may be<BR>
the same sometimes and different<BR>
at other times.  That's real.<BR>
<BR>
Even our perception changes over time.<BR>
<BR>
I enjoy writing as a spinoff from <BR>
other people's works.  We call it<BR>
bumping here.  I do it all the time.<BR>
We kinda inspire each other that way.<BR>
<BR>

Thanks to b.k. and Rennie for the comments on Havana Rewind.  Rennie, I would love to hear more about your experience there.<BR>
<BR>
One of the great things about being new on here is getting to go back and read everyone's older postings, in addition to the new.  I am enjoying.

<BR>
I've read all your work so far and<BR>
find it to be very captivating.<BR>
<BR>
That's the word "captivating".<BR>
At First I could not think of the<BR>
word to describe your writing.<BR>
<BR>
You are an awesome writer and I am<BR>
enjoying your works "immensely".<BR>
