You ask her if her life is boring, Daylia. I can introduce you to her sometime. She's got an ego the size of Prince Edward Island (in my opinion), and I'm sure she thinks her life is anything BUT boring. Her daughter is a superb singer, by the way, a great piano player, and a very nice person...played professionally in Europe for many years, is now back in Orillia and working a day job. She got tired of the music circuit eventually. She was sort of doing what I would term pop music...very good pop music. She also smokes, I believe, but not so heavily as her mother does.

It's the really young people I feel sad for when I see them smoking, because I know they have their whole lives ahead of them and they're making a choice they will almost surely regret sometime later. The older ones...I just shrug. They made their choices a long time ago, like the rest of us older folks.
