Thanks to all the people who have supported this site over the 7 years I've been doing it. It has been fun creating it. But I have to end it as I can not devote the time needed anymore to keep this site active. The website will stay up and you're free to go back to any old posts as they will remain posted. I am currently going to be working on a Rock & Roll CD of original music and I need to concentrate all my free time on that. 


Your friend, always
