A Viking Prayer…May the trade winds and good
fortune fill your sails…May the sun warm you and make bountiful the fields…May
the seas be calm and the nighttime skies be ever clear… For the stars to lead
you to safe harbor...
Kevin and ONE (The Band).

Hey Guys!

I decided that I wanted to be "happy" too!!!

So much so, that all visitors on MY PAGE will be greeted with "I'm So Very Happy" for a while!!!

Great song!

So, when is John going to venture back from the snow-bound nether-regions for a DFD party in Topanga?

Thank's.
I actually got some paint down last night. Beeen a long while. Just the thought of everyone got me there. A couple phrases for the day.

"Save the Planet, Hug a Human"

"Make Music, Not War"

"Just don't change feet when you open your mouth"

"Go Green"

"Make someone smile, ski naked"

"My child is not an honor student, but they know what love is"

"Life is not a contest"

Love You Brother,
