Results and Roses
The man who wants a garden fair, Or small or very big, With flowers growing here and there, Must bend his back and dig.
The things are mighty few on earth That wishes can attain. Whate'er we want of any worth We've got to work to gain.
It matters not what goal you seek Its secret here reposes: You've got to dig from week to week To get Results or Roses Poet: Edgar Guest
"But it is clear that the Sun is going to come back tomorrow again... I know! Blackness already I saw worse of leave people are crazy. But expects that the Sun already comes! Who believes always achieves!" ;O)

"All in all, Aaron Koppel and company...have produced a lovely, lively collection marked by intelligent writing, emotional depth, and sterling musicianship." -Neil Tesser
I really regretted missing your set w/ Bill, Greg and Quin @ Hungry Brain. That's such a dynamic combination of people, it could only have been a blast. Now that I read here you're moving to Argentina, I regret it even more.
