Have you ever been through a disaster

the_vicar @the_vicar (1477) • United States 28 Dec 06

So far, Mississippi has not recovered completely from the damage caused by Hirricane Katrina. It is sad to see such a lovely place ruined by a disaster. I wonder why it has taken so long to get things back to normal a year and a...

What kind of music do you like?

the_vicar @the_vicar (1477) • United States 23 Nov 06

I love Opera and Jazz. Two very different and distinct styles. Opera because it is so melodic and jazz because of the kinds of moods it expresses. Anyone else like either one of these or something very different?
