I Love Puns--peter Sent Me a Few :O)

seem to be falling into place--got an e-mail today that my new digital
camera had been shipped and I should be getting it into 2-3 days. I am
now looking at and working on my new monitor. The new one--21.5"--in on
the left and the old one--15"--on the right.




Last, but certainly not least, I received the news today that the next show I will be seeing/reviewing is "Burn The Floor"--more about that soon.
