Hey John,
We're still out here! I've just been too consumed by the UNC basketball madness lately - GO HEELS!!! Sorry, shameless plug. : )
And I must confess that I had no idea what the answers were to the questions, as poetry is not my forte, but I appreciate the fun facts for the day!
Hope all is well there - we're thinking about you.
Love you lots,
Danielle
Hi John,
Martha and I think that you have too many brain cells firing these days..... you know...... reciting poetry, speaking French, etc....... :)
You'll have to give us hillbillies a break. Our cultural literacy is a bit lacking!
Hope spring has sprung in your neck of the woods!
I agree with Greg! : ) But always glad to further my education!
Love the CD!
Love to you both,
Martha
Ya know I was just putting the Keats opus down when this came over, But since the Phillies where playing a day game I forgot to answer the question. There is a rumor that Nova students where so excited about the final four three of them were spotted in a Chevy and weren't expelled. Will wonders never cease. What happened to KU this year?
To me, there is a far more glaring omission than KU in the final four. It's you, Bob! And a Philly team in the fray to boot! We miss you and your witty, albeit at times, esoteric commentary! Glad you've shared a bit here.
I'm impressed by your knowledge of Keats! :)
