Oh poor boy. Though I could think of better ways to have asked for a day off.

Severin, take your whippings of slavery with good grace for soon you will taste freedom. My very best wishes for you tomorrow.

Definitely an improvement in the strumming. Keep practicing. I couldn't hear the words of the song very clearly though.

That's not exactly what Brian Adams had in mind with the line, "Played it 'till my fingers bled".

First time I think I've EVER heard 'Summer of '69' quoted. In ANY context. Well put, Sir, well put.

Yeah, what HE said, Ro(i)ver. Heal well and fast, bud.

The trick, my inscrutable and oftimes indeciph'rable Balkan buddy, is to NOT attempt to balance them on yer nose after consuming more of them than is good for one, no? :wink:

Speaking of your Warden's Office - I don't think you've told us what your assigned job is for the next nine months. You had speculated long ago about washing bodies, or digging ditches, etc. What have they actually assigned you to do?
