  1. I don't think that rendition will be a hit. LOL Go back to your composing board.

    My countdown right now is until the evening of the 20th when my daughter will be returning from China after 16 months away from the USA and a total of 3.5 years living and working there (with only two brief summers home). She's home to job hunt and make decisions on the next chapter of her life.
