thanks david, paul, rose and anyone i'm forgetting who gave me suggestions for the reading i had to do at the ol' company x-mas party. at the last minute, i found a pablo neruda poem called "ode to my socks" which was a big hit. i can always count on the brains and heart of the jmdl to come to my aid. happy holly-days, everyone. alison e. in slc np: elton john, honky chateau Check out Yahoo!
