Rich's Note: A Little Apprehension Goes A Long Way
Sometimes when Topica (our email service) schedules a weekend
maintenance event, it somehow ends up keeping us from sending out RDJ
and DDJ for a week or two.
Well, they've got one scheduled for this weekend and I am apprehensive.
I will think positive thoughts.
But, just in case you don't hear from us for a while – that's why.
On another note, towards the end of next week Susan and I will start
moving into our new apartment in Purcellville. I'm sure we'll be met by
cheering crowds.

Do You Remember?
I Believe
Frankie Laine 1953
The Bachelors 1964
Words and Music by Ervin Drake, Jimmy Shirl, Al Stillman, and Irvin
Graham
I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray someone will come to show the way
I believe, I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe (why I believe)
