Dearest Interloper. What can I say? Nothing other than thankyou - you whose wisdom and belief make me repeat these words from a song, "So somewhere in my youth, or childhood, I must have done something good."  [This message has been edited by Nightshade (07-19-2003 03:32 PM).] |

I waited a bit to respond to your Tanka. It is so well expressed and I love the picture. I am ready to put an end to this day...and hope that tomorrow brings life and love and hope for us all. Thank you Chris M |
