>>>We had something similar happen at our Catholic Church in Campbell, California. Some people would not know the "truth" if it bit them on the back side. :) Everyone enjoys his/her own sense of truth. God knows the truth - we know flavors of the truth. In fact each of us has a favorite flavor or flavors. Mine is Rocky Road by the way, when it comes to ice cream! :)

>>>Whatever happens I will be prepared in some way or fashion. I have never had my head buried in the sand and I do not know what the future holds. I am just on this planet earth, going for a ride using this thing we call life. If I am able to enjoy it while helping others then I have had a good life.

>>Outside of VFP and Rock Road ice cream, are we more alike or different? You're Roman Catholic, I'm an Episcopalian (Anglican Catholic). If I recall correctly, you play Flamenco guitar, I play Classical guitar. It occurred to me that one could take those two items and say that we're either very different or very alike. It would simply be a matter of the person's perspective.

Very introverted as are many engineers and programmers, until you saw them release their passion! Not much different from VFP programmers and our VFP community .

Tom,

Chicago Pizza....drool...drool.:-)

Good luck with the show. I'm sure you'll do great.

My Dad (as I may have mentioned) was in the music business both as a performer, manager, and recording producer. My Godfather, Dave Dexter, worked for Capitol Records for years and did the production work for the U.S. releases of the Beatles albums. So I come by my love of music honestly.< s >

BTW, I just noticed the Sunnyvale location. Isn't that where Atari was (is)?
