I do apologize to all for not being able to make it. When I got up Yesterday, I was sick as a dog that just ate more than his fair share of amphibian life forms. Racked on the couch all day. Again apologies and it sounds like I missed a great time. Don, actually, I go back to Emkay tomorrow eve. but I'm still looking for freelance writing jobs. Thank you for your kind offer. Where has the flyin' column been playing recently and would you be interested in covering "A Soldier's Lament" Let me know would you? I am feeling much better today. It's amazing what a lot of rest and a couple of quick brew-ups (Tea) will do for mind and body. Do keep me in mind for any future soirees. Take good care all, kindest reguards, Neil
