A couple of items from the OC three:

1. Do you people know about the Naxosradio.com classical (on-line)music. It is wonderful (via your computer’s speakers) and cheap (maybe $10 / year for FM quality). Really a great service — you can log on and try it for free to see how its works.

2. I have been reading Timothy Egan’s National Book Award (non-fiction) Worst Hard Times. This is about the TX, OK panhandle area extending even into SW Nebraska. Connie, I think you would especially enjoy this as Egan is an excellent nature and environmental descriptive writer (he is a Seattle-based NY Times person and often writes on environmental issues).

——-
I’ll quickly add, Connie, that that you are linked to us OC Sagittarians – my birthday (69) is 12/3, my wife’s (62)and our wedding anniversary (24) on 12/19. We also celebrate (peacefully and quietly) the Winter and Summer Solstices.

Please know that we are thinking of you people, and find that the connection that began with our totally chance attending the CU-Irvine concert means a lot to us.

If only we could nominate him for the Supreme Court!

We will satisfy ourselves with your rising blood counts; all that sugar plummy stuff will just have to fall where it will…for you are better to us than platters of cookies and finer to us than the most gilded of sugar plums…yea, even better art thou than pheasants of the field and doggie smiles in the daytime hours….

Are you getting the idea here? Please! Don’t make me go on!

Sending smiles and hugs westward,
Carolyn

“Happy Anniversary!” It is so good to be able to celebrate long distance with you on this day!

The gala planned for this evening for Charles’ birthday sounds wonderful too! Enjoy!

Love, Irene
