Really?! I knew she was a counselor of some kind but I thought she never
re-married. Whenever I see her doing an interview it always says Annie Denver.

>Annie has been re-married for quite some time.
Hi!
I found one thing Annie said in the TNN special a little sad. When she said
she was more in love with the fact that John was in love with her rather than
in love with him. Could be just one of many reasons the marrage didn't work
out :( She is a very classy lady just the same.
Peace,
Tricia
I will be the last person on the planet to get to see this TNN
show....so I am not clear on what you mean....did she say she was more
in love with the fact that he adored her so much? -Meaning that she
didn't reciprocate the feeling? Does this mean he was infatuated with
her and she was just a little more realistic? Sometimes I get the
feeling that John is this guy exploding with emotion and sincere
sensitivity, and not everyone else is that expressive or feels as
strongly about things....and there is a "mismatch" in his relationships
because of it. Can you imagine a relationship made up of two people with
that much emotional energy living together? What a roller coaster
ride!!!!! I haven't seen the TNN show, but after watching all Annie's
other interviews, I would definitely say by watching her body language,
that she loved/loves John deeply.....as a lover or as a friend or in
whatever capacity she is capable of....I guess she's the only one now
that will ever know what that might be. I adore her too and can
definitely understand where she's coming from....She is so
special.....Lorraine
I really didn't get that out of what she said. I know Richard H. said he got
that as well. I need to go back and look at it again. I thought she meant
more that she couldn't believe that he would be in love with her. She has
made a statement similar to this in another interview, and it came out more
that they were young (she was 20 and he was 23) and she saw him as being
older and a musician and could not believe that he could be in love with her.
Maybe I missed something here, as this is two of you who got the same
impression. However she felt in the beginning of the marriage she does not
appear to be a lady who did not love her husband. Your love grows over the
years and changes, and even if it started out a certain way (we can marry
someone for different reasons) I don't think it stayed that way. If she did
mean it how you took it, it makes me sad as well that she felt that way at
that time. I still think she is a classy lady, too.
I had heard that she had never remarried also. Well kept secret if she did!

CO state records show the names as follows:

Ann Marie Denver
Zachary John Deutschendorf
Anna Kate Deutschendorf
CA state records now show Cassandra Delaney Denver, but in CO she was known as
Cassandra Delaney.
I understand that as part of the divorce settlement, Cassandra was
barred from using Denver---something she immediately starting doing
after John died.

He never changed his legal name. On the programs at the Aurora Memorial

Hi Rox!
I'm not SURE on this....so if anyone KNOWS for sure, please speak up...
I THINK John NEVER had his name legally changed...using Denver as more of a
strage name....and I beleive both Anna Kate and Zak use Duestchendorf. I'm not
sure about JesseBelle though.
As for Annie, my guess is she legally changed hers to Denver, but not sure on
this either.
Heck....i'm still scratching my head about Annies remarriage, having gotten
emails that say yep and no! LOL!
Hey CHRISTINE...yoooohooo...can you help with this? :))
Thanx
Cheri22
Gee, I always did think that Annie was John's "That Girl"! (Ann Marie - get
it?, lol!) She's always been such an inspiration! As have been the rest of
the Deutschendorfs/Denvers as a family!
And I agreed with Dot when she said Annie's made a similar statement in another
interview. I believe she said something like, she thought John was "worldly"
and that of course at that time he really wasn't, and then she added that she
couldn't believe he had picked her. I believe she meant the same thing in the
TNN show when she said that, in the beginning, she may have been more in love
with the fact that John was in love with her. I love her candid responses!
And btw, she cracked me up on the Behind The Music interview when she said John
told her she wasn't the girl he married, and she said, "oh John, I know I'm
not. I was happy about that, I don't think he was."
:-) see, she's great!
And in case it isn't clear in my post thus far; I believe that Annie loved, and
loves, John. And that they filled up each other's senses! -just exactly like
the song. :-)
Peace - Terri
Although Annie may not have been as much in love with John as John was with
her, I think she still had feelings for him. I think those feelings grew,
which may be why it was more and more difficult for her to share him with the
world. I also think (and this is just speculation on my part) that their
relationship improved after the devorce because the contraints of marriage were
no longer there.
I have always believed John still loved Annie, and the more I see of Annie, I
believe she still loved him. Whether as a very close friend or more, who
knows. I guess only Annie knows for sure.

To the best of my knowledge, Annie never remarried. From what I have seen

Lu, there's a BIG difference in being Annie Denver and being Mrs. John Denver.
Think about it.
I would imagine--and, Kennon, this is only MY supposition--that being Mrs. John
Denver was a pain in the keister. Tied to his image and what that image stood
for, always linked to that image, having to put up with the "star" treatment
(and not the good stuff that goes with that either), and your life and
personality become John Denver. For someone as staunchly independent as she
seems to be, that had to be a major pain for her. I wouldn't want to be Mrs.
John Denver, either. Getting lost in that, becoming another John Denver clone
would drive me up the wall. I'd hate the restrictions.
But, being married to John Denver, being Annie Denver, has a different
connotation. I would go so far as to concede that the "John Denver" persona
could be a major pain in the butt, but the "Henry John" persona was less
demanding and always there, the romantic and the lover. John Denver offstage
was not the John Denver onstage, and she didn't have to share that or get
swallowed by it.
No, I can understand the statement. They are two separate people, but one is
more liveable than the other. IMHO!

I remember him years ago on the Merv Griffin show stating that he had never
changed his name legally but he was proud of both of them, and that it was
"Denver" that he asked Annie to share with him. So her legal married name was
Denver not Deutschendorf.

Cindy
and I have to ask a question here, because this came up on another mailing list
I was on. Doesn't this bother you? At all? I mean, I don't want to sound
like Kennon or Nid here, but, people,you're digging up his tax records, his
birth certificate, and his driver's license? If the man was still alive, that
would considered stalking. And someone out there has gone to the trouble of
getting the autopsy record. Oh, good, just what I needed...the nitty gritty
details of death in an experimental plane. You know, some knowlege I don't
really want.
Folks, we need to get some perspective on this. I mean, discussing the name
thing...well, that's curiousity. But going through tax records, birth and
death certificates, phone books?
New discussion, where is the line drawn when being a fan? What is acceptable
and what is going over and beyond the call of obsessiveness?
This came up in a group for Mitch Pileggi (Assistant Director Skinner on The X
Files--we'll leave my libido out of this conversation, but I'll say one
word...YUMMY!). Someone posted that she had his home address from his driver's
license. The discussion got lively, to say the least, but it was agreed on
that this was stalking, pure and simple, and a line was crossed. Aren't we
doing that here? And if not, why not? How do we define a "fan" as opposed to
an obsessive?
So, I'm curious. No aspersions, no judgments, no name-calling, just simple
curiosity about this subject. If you want to just email me your answer, that's
fine too. I'm trying to understand something here, not flame anyone.
And I don't know why this suddenly just hit me like a brick between the eyes,
but it did.

I have to agree. I wouldn't want anyone to look up all this stuff on me. I
hope the worse people will see my profile on aol. LOL!! Won't find out much.
I feel like John and his family are wonderful people and don't deserve this
kind of stuff.
You brought up a very good point.

Thanks for your post! I enjoy you posts always!

I went from Wieczhalek to Russell.... when the clerk asked if I planned to
hyphenate my name, I looked at her and burst out laughing.... when she looked
at the name I was shedding.. she said "Oh my, yea dumb question"....
Soooo given the choice... I'd probably go with Denver too.
>how do you people come up with all these records? I am amazed. clue me in.
>where are you finding this stuff?
Property tax records, birth certificates, and the like are public
records, and so are open to all. The university information was
evidently published by the respective schools. It doesn't appear that
any laws are being broken.
Is it a little creepy and over-the-line? Yeah, but no more so than
publishing explicit fantasies about John's penis.
KB
Just to clarify KB, and I know you like things clear... it was Meadow Muffin
who wrote the penis fantasy, not Val and Fee. Their posts were never that
sexually explicit.
And I actually happen to agree on that point.
> It doesn't appear that
>any laws are being broken.
That's true. It's not illegal. Too bad too, because I would like the security
to know that my records are my business, and no one elses.
This is a wierd area anyway. I know there will be lots of debate about this,
yeah it's legal, the records are public and all, but... geeeeez there are still
family out there, and I would really feel violated if someone was posting
information that was on tax records (or infering to them) of my dead
husband/son/brother/father what have you. There has to be some point where
enough is enough. And yes, it is creepy.
This aspect of digging into John's personal records bothers me as well. It
always has. The man shared enough of his life with us. We should respect the
privacy of the parts he didn't want to share. We all need a little
privacy...even celebrities.
As far as people wanting to read the autopsy report......well, to each their
own I guess. Me, personally......I'd rather remember him the way he was alive
and happy, rather than be haunted by the description of his body when he died.
My own imagination can come up with gruesome (sp?) enough pictures without
reading the gory detail. Thankyouverymuch.
Just my 2 cents yet again.
Peace,

Is it creepy, looking up all the public information that can be found about
a person? Maybe. Is it done every day? You betcha. Work in a library for
awhile, and see just how nosy people are.
It is public information, and one of the pesky things about living in a
"free country" (now there's a debate for a rainy day) is that a certain
amount of personal information *is* available about you, whether you're Joe
Blow from Kokomo, or Bill Clinton.
I consider it part of the free speech continuum-- the one that allows people
to post creative fantasies or endless, annoying, nitpicky opinions to a
newsgroup, and allows telemarketers to interrupt my dinner three or four
times a week.

Oh, yeah...Meadow Muffin. That chick was bonkers. Wonder what

In most cases many records can be obtained through the proper agencies for a
small fee. In my case, I have access to DMV and law enforcement records,
which makes it very easy to simply type in his name and have the information
appear before me on a computer screen instantly. I also have access to far
more information on him than I will ever tell anyone, but I see no harm in
posting what his height and weight were as well as the legal name on his
drivers license. After his death his name was typed into the system by more
law enforcement agencies than I can tell you, doing a search of the "vital
information" that has been debated here in this very newsgroup for more than a
year now, i.e. "how tall was he"? People are eager to ask and to know, but now
that records have been made available in one way or another and the facts are
becoming known, some find argument with how the information was obtained. I
agree that some public records are far more private than the stats on a
driver's license, and I'm not eager to read an autopsy report, nor do I wish to
see his tax returns or have a copy of his birth certificate. But human
curiosity is natural and there are people who DO want to know. I don't
consider this stalking someone when these records are made available to the
public. Questions were raised as to the legal names of the family members.
Answers were given. If answers aren't wanted here, but rather only
speculation, debates and opinions are asked for, then maybe questions should be
rephrased in the future.

That's Kennon's word, not mine. I would not have used the word "creepy." My
word would have been, and is, "invasive." I have great adoration of John
Denver and respect for his music and his talent and his work for the causes he
supported. But, I do not want to know about how and how much he paid in taxes,
and neither do I want to know about the other minutiae of his life. There are
limits. And there are some things, dead or alive, that are invading someone's
space.
I never said any of this was illegal. I am asking to understand why someone
would do it and what the limits are. I am not questioning the legality of
anything, but the morality of the issue. You can look up MY records right now
and find a rather interesting legal situation, but otherwise boring. That
isn't illegal, but is it moral? Do you want this done to you?
And, Linda, you can stop slapping me in the face about the Gutter Club
postings, ok? They're gone, never to polute the newsgroup again. For the
record, Meadow Muffin was never part of our story and should not be lumped in
with Fee and I. That little child was the result of too little lithium and too
much time on its hands. And if you didn't read it, please don't pass judgment
on the story. It's not what you think it was. It was not about sex and the
character of John Denver played a small part in the story.
Let's not confuse the issue. The issue is not about Gutter Club postings or
Meadow Muffins or First Amendment rights. The issue is how far should we go,
as fans, and where do we draw the line? What is fair game and was is none of
our business?
>The issue is how far should we go,
>as fans, and where do we draw the line? What is fair game and was is none
>of
>our business?
Sort of goes back to the Golden Rule... Do unto others as you would have them
do unto you. What you would want people to know about your very personal life?
IMHO, there is such a thing as "too much information."
Peace,
Mary in Oklahoma
In my case, I have access to all of that and more and not just Colorado. I can
look up ANYONE in the CompuServe/AOL database and tell you all the pertinent
information in the world. I also signed a non-disclosure agreement to prevent
me from doing what some people are doing, and that's posting the information
anywhere. I am guessing when I presume they made you do the same. That's an
industry standard.
Again, I'm asking where is the line to be drawn? How much information do you
want out there about you? Yes, human nature is curious, but what about a
person's right to privacy? Ouch, that's an issue being debated on a daily
basis and I doubt that one will ever be solved about a celebrity's right to
privacy. But, as a fan, where do you draw the line?
I'm not here to pass judgment on anyone. If it came across as me being
holier than thou, then I accept the slap on the wrist. I deserve that one.
I'm hardly in a position to play the Saint here, since I'm also the one that
actively looked up the entire Aerosmith band, Stephen Sondheim (Broadway
Playwrite), Terry Gilliam (Monty Python), J. Michael Straczinski (creator of
Babylon 5), Patrick Stewart, and a few others...all members of CompuServe.
But, I don't have their information stored anywhere and I would hardly think of
writing, or calling them, since finding a phone number is easier. I drew a
line for me. And that line was not so easy to cross and there is information
that I don't want or need to know. *I* made that decision for myself. I want
to know about others and where you draw the line and how you came to that
decision. What is acceptable to you?
Simple enough.
>I want
>to know about others and where you draw the line and how you came to that
>decision. What is acceptable to you?
Where I drew the line and what was acceptable for me was to let people know
that he was 5'10" tall and his last name on his license was Deutschendorf.
Did you ever post his exact height? I'm just wondering because of all the
conflicting answers we got when everyone was speculating. All I know is he
was taller than I, and shorter than my husband.

Did you read the part where she pointed out that the "Gutter Club Sagas" were
not sexually explicit? No one said ANYTHING about what's going on in the FJD
community. In fact, I believe--and DejaNews will support me on this, as
always--that I stated that there was a part two to the TradeWinds story that
would not be posted here because it *WAS* sexually explicit.

that is not what I said. Again, I am not focusing on whether the information

A comment was made, via a very reliable source who's name I have promised to
not reveal, that John Denver HATED the idea of the internet because anything he
did was immediately posted and discussed to the infinite degree. Now, whether
or not he would have approved of this sort of thing, we'll never know, but that
kind of statement leads me to believe that he would not have.
It's not a question of what I can and cannot do, or whether it's legal or not

(sigh) *You're* the witch here, can't your occult powers discern that
I am me, Kathy, and I am not anyone else?
Evidently not, you're too busy manufacturing your fantasies of someone
who isn't around to defend himself.

An assertion was made that no one had written anything "explicit"
about John, save Meadow Muffin. I asserted that to the contrary, you
have posted stuff that is quite explicit. It's on the Net and anyone
can read it.
>In fact, I believe--and DejaNews will support me on this, as

The point is not WHERE you posted it. The point is that you DID post
it, and that others in this forum denied that such a thing has ever
happened. So I just thought I would set matters straight.
>you've set nothing straight, except your wig. and your stretch pants.
No wig, real hair. I cover the grey with some tint like any other
woman would do, but that's about it. And no stretch pants, either.
Really, Valerie, do a little "divination" and figure out that I am not
Kennon. You are coming off as rather silly, when you accuse me of
being someone else.
Kathy

What Val posts on Deja News is EVERYONE'S business. Anyone can go
there and read it. It's just as public as this NG.
But do you mean there's MORE on her web page? Hey, I can't wait!
Enquiring mind,
Kathy
Yes, and contrary to what you might think, being a Witch has nothing to do with
ESP, divination, or the occult. You'd know that if you either did a little
homework and read a book or two, possible spoke with someone and asked
questions...you know, LEARN about the subject.
>Evidently not, you're too busy manufacturing your fantasies of someone

Speaking of fantasies....
>An assertion was made that no one had written anything "explicit"
>about John, save Meadow Muffin. I asserted that to the contrary, you
>have posted stuff that is quite explicit. It's on the Net and anyone

Why don't you spend some time reading for context.
>The point is not WHERE you posted it.
No, that was the point.

>Kennon. You are coming off as rather silly, when you accuse me of

Kathy...pot...kettle...black. Now, who's coming off silly?
And, when you stop coming to Kennon's rescue when he gets stuck for a plot
point, the rest of us might actually believe you aren't Victor/Victoria in
disquise.
Although, the way you seem to enjoy torturing others here, it's kind of funny
to watch something crawl under your skin...in a morbid sort of way.
Damn, you're right, Joe, peace and love...and song....
The wind is the whisper of our Mother, the Earth...
The wind is the hand of our Father, the sky...
The wind watchs over our struggles and pleasures...
The wind is a Goddess that first learned to fly...
Come, Kathy/Kennon/who-cares, sing...you know this one...
yes it is...and I believe it has been posted several times that this is where
the Gutter Clubs Sagas, and The Gutter Club itself, have moved to. So, the
only ones coming there are those who want to read them. I presume you fall in
that category? Fee and I are flattered.
>But do you mean there's MORE on her web page? Hey, I can't wait!

Giggle, giggle....so much more, darling. So much more....
I think Joe is right - you and KB are the same person! You're both
incredibly negative.

It's a free country, and an even freer Internet. Mind your own
business -- I surf where I like.
>I think Joe is right - you and KB are the same person! You're both

You sound pretty negative, yourself, Lucy.
Kathy
(not Kennon)
Hey, people read the Star and the National Enquirer for Truly
Unbelievable Stories. Why spend extra money when you can go to the
Internet and read even *more* truly unbelievable stories?
Like I said to Lucy, it's a free country and a freer Internet. If you
think someone who exercises their freedom is an "idiot", then you're
even more small-minded than I thought you were.

I happen to know quite a lot about Wicca, and come from a long line of
proud pagans. Are you telling me that witches *never* attempt to
perform divination? I beg to differ.
>Kathy...pot...kettle...black. Now, who's coming off silly?
...coming to you directly from the Joe Keenan Guide To Ad Hominem
Attacks. For all the creativity you display in your damp fantasies,
you are sure stuck in a rut when it comes to argument.
>And, when you stop coming to Kennon's rescue when he gets stuck for a plot

You have "rescue" and "have an opinion on the topic" confused. I
really don't give a damn if you want to persist in believing something
completely ridiculous, though.
>Although, the way you seem to enjoy torturing others here, it's kind of funny
>to watch something crawl under your skin...in a morbid sort of way.
Wow, I had no idea that having a differing opinion and stating it
translated to "torture" in your mind. How in the world do you deal
with life when it isn't exactly the way you think it should be?
>Damn, you're right, Joe, peace and love...and song....
Nope, you're both wrong. But if it makes you feel better to think
that there is just one person who doesn't buy The Myth Of Saint John
"Francis" Denver, rather than two, who am I to deny you small
comforts?

Blessed be
Defending or explaining an opinion by stating the above would seem to be a page
out of that same "guide". Perhaps I should have you write a forward to the next
printing.

Please, most of the time...make that the ONLY time you seem to post here is to
defend or "rescue" KB. Hence the conclusion based on circumstancial evidence
such as similar addresses, similar misspellings, and way too similar opinions
that you are one and the same. Perhaps we are wrong. I just wouldn't bet on it.

No, there is plenty of people who didn't care for JD or his "myth" or "image"
or public persona. An equal number didn't care for his belief systems or
causes. Frankly, there is plenty about John that I didn't agree with. But there
is plenty that I did. Hence, I visit here as a "fan". Pray tell, why would you
and Kennon continue to come here if you are not fans?
I don't think Otter needs to mind their own business, Kathy. You posted here
that you read Val's postings on her DejaNews site. You posted a criticism of
these postings. Otter is simply responding to your post.
It means you had to go out of your way to find and read what you don't seem to
like. What's the point? To "ejucaite" yourself? No one should tell you what to
read (I agree it's a "free country"). But Otter simply said "don't read it if
you don't like it". Hardly telling you not to read it.
I love the way you and KB (oops, that would be admitting there really is two of
you) twist words and sentence taken out of context to fit your point of view. I
really think I should submit the manuscript of my "guide" to you for that
forward. Heck, perhaps you could rewrite it--your good at rewriting posts here.
good, at least you're learning humility. now, go back and re-read what I said
and figure it out. and if you're such a fam-trad, then you already know the
answer. good try.
>For all the creativity you display in your damp fantasies,
>you are sure stuck in a rut when it comes to argument.
when you present an informed argument, I'll respond in kind. as the saying
goes, I refuse to enter into a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

Show me a reason and I'll soon show you a rhyme
Cats fit on the windowsill

I've got to be where my spirit can run free
Gotta find my corner of the sky

Caught a bus in Amarilla
It was headed for San Antone
Had a brand new cardboard suitcase
And a windowseat alone
And I thought that I was something
And I dreamed I'd travel far
Maybe be a resturant hostess
Maybe be a movie star
And the bus from Amarilla
Chased a train along the track
And I never looked behind me
"Cause I wasn't coming back
I had a one way ticket to nowhere
I was finally traveling free
I had a one way ticket to go where
Anything was possible for me....
Come on, Kathy, pick a show...any show...since you're hell bent for leather to
prove that you and Kennon aren't joined at the hip or in the
stretchpants...since you know ever so much more about Wicca than anyone else on
the planet and live they the Rede.
MM,
I'll let the broad stew in her own "homegrown tomato" sauce if you'll join me.
Personally, I'm bored. I'm thinking, Tahiti, pina coladas, you and me, beach,
you and me, sun, sand, surf, you and me.
what say?

You're previous posts complained of the gutter club postings in the ng. I
stated that you should not read them if they are offensive to you. In the
same vein, I chose not to read National Enquirer or Harold Robbins or
Jacqueline Suzanne for that matter because I don't want to not to mention
the literary quality has much to be desired. No one is forcing you to
remain in the ng nor are they forcing you to read postings you say you find
offensive. I don't like NBA basketball but I'll be darned if I would
invade a B-ball ng and post my dislike for various players.
I feel sorry for you that you have to respond with such negativity. It is
evident from the postings regarding the troll explanation that you and KB
share either the same mind or perhaps the same household.
If it's so bad here then leave. I don't see a gun at your head forcing you
to remain. You are correct. It is a free country . . . well, within
limits anyway and you are free to leave anytime you like.
Lucy
oooooo, Majesty....let's!
>Joe won't mind will he?
I think he's busy with the new serving girls and won't miss me at all. at
least, he never does anymore. <whimper, whimper>
Come, Majesty, I have arranged a plane. We're off!

And I have another posting to add. I've thought about this for a while, and
since you are more informed that most, this will be for the others who are
moderately curious.
To say that Wiccans (or Witches) never practice divination would be to deny
that divination in ANY religion exists. Divination is not exclusive to any
one sect or belief. The Shinto Priests have practiced it, the Essenes, the
Knight's Templar and yes, even the elusive Illuminati that everyone seems to
think is a myth, but in reality, is not. So, yes, Wiccans do practice
divination. But is that the religion?
No. It is not. For every one Wiccan you know who believes in divination, I
can produce another who does not. It is not the religion of Wicca as it is not
the religion of Christianity or Bhuddism or Tao or Native American Spirituality
or any other you can name.
Wicca is a religion based on Goddess worship and the seasons and Nature,
herself. It is a religion that revolves around the seasons, the tides, the
solstices and the equinoxes. We recognize and believe in a power far beyond
ourselves. We believe that this Power chooses to manifest itself in many faces
and with many names. We believe that these are the Goddesses and Gods of the
differing pantheons and we worship the Old Ones as part of that True Power.
We are polytheistic--worshipping more than one Deity and believe that the Gods
are many. We believe in animism, in that all things are created with a spirit
and soul. We believe in the true concept of the Gods as a part of us, living
with in us and around us. When I say I am Goddess, I am not elevating myself
beyond my worth, but celebrating in the sense of Her within me.
So, to answer your question, Kathy, no, many do not. Many do. It is a part of
Wicca but it is not the whole. And it is not Wicca. And never has been.
ok, I'm game...I suppose I shall have to work on the stairmaster to get back
into shape for the Captain....gotta fit back in that Speedo!
I want to thank you for your post giving a little bit of knowledge about your
beliefs to those of us who are ignorant of that. I still have the list of
books that you sent to me and had hoped to het into them this week over spring
break. So far though, my fibromyalgia has made all but impossible for me to
even get out of bed, or walk, so I'm pretty much reading whatever I can reach
on my nightstand, or can get brought to me by my wonderful hubby or miracle of
a son. But I appreciate sincere knowledge in any form and particularly this
knowledge.
Maybe some will think that I should have sent this to vie private e-mail, but I
felt that I wanted you to know that you have spritual support out here, even
if, after I read those books to recommended, that I end up not entirely
agreeing with you, I still support your right to believe it and I support you
personally. You are quickly turning into another miracle gift in my life. But
that I will talk to you about another time.
Whatever positions you have left for the road tour of the TeaMobile I would
like to volunteer for. I'm particularly good and driving and navigating
(although I do sometime tend to end up in Colorado without meaning to! LOL -
you might have to send someone to keep an eye on me!) But, if that job is not
open I would be honored to serve wherever the Holy TeaBag would have me!
Peace my dear friends
Debbie
And one more thing...being good and loving to each other, because we truly are
all we have.

You know, I'm gonna keep Jim and Twyla busy as Tartarus working on that PR, so,
looks like I'm gonna need a driver.
