- Linda, that's good news about your brother, but I'm sure it's agonizing and frustratingly slow. Will put him on our church's list again this week and we'll update the congregation's prayer list.
All the best to him, and to you.
See you in Vegas??

- That's the best comment I've ever gotten...
Is my review of your book still on Amazon? My family is starting to think I'm famous, with quotes in the Monitor, book reviews at Amazon, etc. Can you get me a little more publicity that brings in some business? I could use that about now. Anyone seen the economic climate in Michigan???? Yeechhh!!!
