Thanks so much for checking back in Crash. I have continued to think of you and your family. Glad to hear a good report.

Keep going on that coffee shop. I'm sure the patience will pay off.

Coffee shop! Please sell lemon squares. They are delicious under any and all circumstances. And good to hear about mama.

It's not necessarily what's written on the t-shirt. It could be the person wearing it...

You really need to run through the L'ouvre someday. All the best artsy movie characters do it.
Dude! I know! I need to find two hot guys that I'm in a love triangle with though, and those are harder to find than you might think. And it's even harder when they have to know about each other's existence. Maybe a pair of best friends--did Jules and Jim ever run through the Louvre?
Nope. You've got to be part of a band of outsiders, or a dreamer, to run through the L'ouvre.

And great news, Crash.

Yes thanks.

She's just reminded me that it was a year ago that she came over to London and Friday 10th marks the anniversary of the London Hammersmith Odeon Show Meet Up. What a great night that was. :D

Are there an infinite number of melodies in the world?

There are an infinite number of melodies, plus one, that can all be traced back by n degrees of separation to either "Mack the Knife" or "I Got Rhythm!".

London was burning, but based on the incredibly low winter rainfalls in Southern California, half of this state should be up in smoke before the end of the year.
