22 Mar 09 - 10:08 AM (#2594511) Subject: RE: dick miles last goodbye From: Surreysinger I'm a bit concerned about Ralphie. He is obviously also a person with multiple personalities ... according to his website he went before us into the light five years ago ... and is also "one of the few active blindfold billet, apportation, trumpet levitation, and materialization mediums" in the world. Could come in useful at gigs I suppose ... basket ball playing, trumpet levitating... and a highly spiritual presence.... And I must say, that's an absolutely beautiful corker of a song (didn't notice any singing) Dick - you should be proud!! |
