Want to get together this week? I'd like a couple copies of the latest CCM, and to chat about new stories and the TBHC.

Yes, I'm madly in love with Ronny Elliott. He's not a senior citizen - he's a folk singer.

P.S. What ever came of the book club at the TBHC? Did you ever find a host? I am newly jobless and have time on my hands.

I feel bad about missing Friday's photo thing...was sick, and still am.
