woowee. I like the dark touch on the new Ray Allen disc. That is one step better than it already is.

You #fear to lose your #jobs. You fear to lose your #friends. You fear to lose your #status. You fear to lose these, while having the knowledge that there are those who are fearing the sounds of #bombs being repeatedly dropped on their homes, schools, and communities. They fear their #screams will not be heard around the world. But what makes matters worse is, we hear their screams, but choose to ignore them out of fear of being an #outcast of #society.

Got this treasure today from New York. From Cindy guitars and jonny means the world to me. Try to get some friends .. it helps. I am speechless. #friends #ny #music #guitars #cindyguitars #realfriends #realculture #realunderground #underground
I am very proud to have so many intelligent and open-hearted friends in such a backward-looking world. We did our tour of Italy with Jonny and have remained friends ever since. He now lives with his soulmate and wife Cindy in New York and concentrates on the essentials. Thanks for the nice picture (with the nice guitars) I'm glad to know you.

My Best Friend Forever ~ Sharon.
She lives right by the Gulf of Mexico, not far from the Florida - Alabama State Line.
I made her an angel, and I made her a poster.
