Since I'm a newbee here and have no idea what I'm getting into in one of these workshops, I'll bite.  Sounds like fun, I think.  Should I be asking if they're takin' newbees? he wondered.

Krawdad: Do I know that feeling! I asked the same question the first time I signed up for a workshop and am hooked ever since. Do they take newbies? Uhh... they take anybody... they even let me in.

Days are sometimes
Easy, Lord
And then there are
Reminders of days that

Give us pause
On account of the
Dear ones who need your

Grace
In handling
Very difficult
Emotional events

Never do you fail to
Analyze our
Needs

So with
This in mind could you
Remind our
Educator
Nan that she has
Grace been given
To
Handle us all

Hi,
count me in. Are Nan and Munda starting a smart asterisk rebellion? (   ) Do I have to wait for the brain benders? My brain is twisted enough!
