I Can Hardly Wait...!!!



As of today, I will no longer be seeing this prompt on my computer screen ... over ... and over ... and over ... I have now joined the 21st Century. Now I will be able to visit all of your wonderful blogs without my silly computer crashing.

Please be patient with me while I get myself organized. In the meantime, here is something to keep you entertained for a while -- one of the prettiest songs ever written.

  4. If you have ever seen the second Matrix movie, I agree with the villain, simply called The Merovingian. He says you can say anything in French and it sounds beautiful.
