Good morning, y'all! You have just made my day and I'm only revving up to face the world, or at least my tiny corner of it (which is daunting enough).

Ebbie, your brother sounds wonderful. You must miss him terribly. I am sorry he left too early, but what a gift that you were so very close. Music is a transcendent bond. Thanks for describing him.

Jerry Elmer (Get OUT!! Really??!!), I posted something in response to your post on the "Threshold Choir" thread. Your "Huh?" compilations sound like a hoot. There is a local former DJ who makes CD compilations for his friends of eclectic music loosely linked bythemes. I've been the fortunate recipient of music inspired by a rainy day, "Life is Messy," a compilation he made for a friend who was going through relationship troubles, and "Bittersweet," a philosophical grouping of songs about life in general.

Have a great day.

Elmer (a name I will wear a little more proudly)
