No fair. You can reach so much farther back into your past than the rest of us. Sorry I couldn't see either Shakespeare this summer.
Cheers,

Cheers,

Scott: thanks so much for your kind words...uh...each time and thanks for having so much energy for others(me) to feed off of!
Mare: So glad you enjoyed the show it makes me feel real good to find out there are people at the show that I know and moreso that they enjoyed it and I feel even better now about my choice of sneakers.
John: I may be able to reach back further ... but sheesh am I glad I didn't have to try to remember all the segments in between; I found this to be a test of my memory as it is. I am sorry you couldn't have seen the shows too but I understand when you've got things to do ... places to live etc.(Heh, Sabine didn't want to go am I right?)
