Jack and Carol,

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage.  Though I haven't met either of you (except in cyberspace), I'd love to join other Mudcatters in helping celebrate your wedding in song.  Time was when I'd have been able (and willing) to hop in the car and drive from Philadelphia or Toronto and drive to DC for a day and then go back the next.  Now I live on the west coast and, as Mark C. says, "it's a long walk."

So I'll just have to join all of you in spirit, along with Mark.

(Hey, guys, I'm jealous.  You're getting wedding posts from Kinky F. -- my favorite Jewish curmudgeon/songwiter.)

YA in Ramallah ("Unfortunately, the zionist Sharon will not let me return home should I leave...")  I take it that's Prime Minister Sharon, not our own Mudcatter Sharon.
