And 2 weeks ago I had occasion to do it off the top of my head for my MS support group's meeting. We were talking about the fact that our county (LaSalle County, Illinois) now has the highest per capita rate of alcoholism in the entire U.S.A. We vie back and forth for that honor with Dade County, Florida. It felt good to sing even that little song since I hadn't sung at all in the last 3 years. Art Thieme |
