I agree. I'd also love to hear your take on La Vie En Rose...unless you did it already Embarassed

That made my day, Bill. It's like a musical hug. Will you please write a book?

I just bought it tonight for $100, so I won't find out for another week or so. I'll do a follow up post once I get ahold of her.
