Re: Update Update
Cold and dreary in Southern Indiana but no accumulation of snow. I guess it's gonna be another snowless Christmas with my 4WD just itching to go out and play. Sigh.....

Headed to England tonight with my best half to visit her brother (and kids) in Milton Keynes plus friends from my teaching days over there. Will make a return trip in late April and early May 2018 to play in Royal Albert Hall for the Christian Proms plus several other locations while on tour.

Re: Update Update
A very nice and quiet Christmas morning here with my daughter and her mother. Breakfast and listening to some very nice Christmas classics followed by gift openings. A great picture of my daughter in law with me while I am wearing the sousaphone as well as a a book and what I think is a VERY expensive knife sharpener. Christmas dinner in two and a half hours. Grateful for peace and family in my life today. The weather, not so much! With the wind chill, - 40 degrees fahrenheit or celcius. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Tubenet!!

When I seek an opinion it will be from a real journalist educated at Columbia or Yale. Not some muttonhead from Flyover State U!!

bloke always uses a lowercase "b".
Besides, bloke would only charge accordians (they're softer when you actually hit one... )

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
