I am not creative. I lurk around woodwinds with sodden reeds and can poorly play notes from sheet music. I have no art.

But I cannot imagine living life without music. (I am secretly queer for opera)

Righto.

Well, here's a curiosity: I am listening to music while I'm online. Neil Young. So which song was playing just as I looked at the bottom of your post? Yep. I Am a Child. Pop magic! And...what a song.

Thank you so very much for your beautiful words, your sympathy. The situation is a real mess. A true tragedy. More fires merged and started today...the smoke is causing my smoke alarm (and those of my neighbors) to go off all night. I finally beat the thing down with a broom handle sometime during the night.

And now onto Screamin' Jay Hawkins.....
