I love this greeting, because it always makes it sound like you're ringing my
doorbell rather than starting an e-mail post.

And I heard that it was going to be debuted in honor of Kate's tour date
announcement!  Anyone want to take bets as to which will happen first?

I think you've hit on something, here, Vickie!  Perhaps the reason we can't
understand JCB's poetry is in fact that it was not written for the sake of
anything meaningful, but just for the sake of something *bad*.  Hmm...

Or one of those shaking hula girls that you always see on the dashboard of the
car in 'road-movies'...Perhaps one made in KaTe's image?

No, no, no, no, no.  In fact, ALW wrote a musical based on Wuthering
Heights...Hmmm...I think it was called "KaTe Bush Superstar", and involved some
silly story about KaTe being a goddess or something.  



Thank you, Steve & Vickie, for a *wonderful* reprieve from all the cat-fighting
(does dax make this a cat-house?) that's been going on around here lately.
