May 1st, International Workers' Day, commemorates the historic struggle of working people throughout the world, and is recognized in every country except the United States, Canada and South Africa. This despite the fact that the holiday began in the 1880's in the United States, with the fight for an eight-hour work day.
In honor of this historic day, I'm making this special wish for you: May your work be fruitful and your harvest bountiful!

FASCINIRANA SAM! Toliko mi godi tvoja svirka, obožavam alt saxofon i jazz (& bluz, naravno!), to je moj definitivni izbor. Pozivam te, kad uspostavimo kontakt, na moj sajt na multiply... Mnogo kvalitetnih ljudi me posjećuje, pa bih voljela da saznaju za tebe... Šteta što ne mogu preko Playlist.coma-a doći do tvoje glazbe, kako bi to mogla staviti kod sebe na multiply! Kad si u Zadru? Još jednom - predivno! I veliko ti HVALA!
