Well Hello!

Talk about coincidence. I was hanging out in the local honkytonk a few days ago and I had a sudden memory of the Mo-Stan Wheelers. Now you pop up on Myspace. Coincidence indeed.

heya I just want to say thank you for writing to me on the subject of show nervousness. I SOOO very much appreciate the kind advice. I am going to put the getting to shows early into high priority. I completely understand why that may make the difference.
Cheers, and best magic to you.

SHe tore her paw pad - I think on a rusty old nail on the porch. I had to keep it wrapped and neosporined for about 3 weeks but it healed back together... Did you see the other woman's pic who posted? That's why I did it - she has an identical dog as her profile pic! HEY: when are you and E coming to visit?
