Hi All,

My sister -- Veronica Ruiz (sister of Maricris Ruiz)
-- has been missing since Monday, December 3rd
(perhaps you may have seen her story on the news
lately). On that morning, she went for a run near her
home in Mill Valley, possibly in or around Mt.Tam.
Unfortunately, she never returned that day, nor has
she been heard from since. The authorities and media
were notified soon afer, which resulted in a massive
search and rescue effort. Along with ten agencies
(such as the sheriff, various police depts, special
units, fired dept, feds, etc), family and friends
participated in locating her, namely within the Mt.
Tam vicinity close to her home. Trails were hiked and
flyers were distributed in Mill Valley, Sausalito,
Tiburon, and the surrounding area. Two sightings were combed
thoroughly - First sighting Blithedale entrance at 11am
and West Point Inn at 12pm. After two full
days, the authorities have decided to indefinitely
suspend their search efforts. Naturally, those closer
to Nikki want nothing more than to continue the
search. We have faith that she's out there and want
nothing more than to see her return home safely.

Therefore, we've decided to take it upon ourselves and
organize our own search and rescue missio

Finally I can actually hear your tunes on the page now.
No That's My Phone...Love it!
Genius!
Well, nearly. That's a heavy word.
But I wouldn't go out of my way to specifically say you're Not a Genius either.

Hey there,

Colma: The Musical, was fantastic. I have never been a fan of musicals, but this film blew me away. Keep it up!
I really enjoyed the movie as well as your other work.

Good Luck in the future!
