Based on our meeting nearly ten years ago when Pat Marr coordinated, I am reasonably sure this birthday is a quite special level. Happy Birthday Mario! Thanks for all you do here.

Thanx everyone for those good birthday wishes. Yes I did have a great day. Our tradition is on one's birthday they can so whatever they want to do. So after a few must do chores and exercises I started to scan BiaB styles. I stumbled on one I liked and worked on a back-to-the-basics song. I will put the finishing touches on it soon. My family is throwing me a party tonight, April 11, so it may take awhile to finish the song, i.e. I will need time to sober up!

Misha, the MIDI force is always with me!

Thanx again my friends, I appreciate all of you.
