Several forum members have contacted me letting me know they are getting spam from my email address. Sungodv said changing my password might help, so I did. Let me know if you still get them and I'll figure something out. Sorry about that, although I didn't really have a say in the matter.

Also, thank you everyone for your kind words to me. I appreciate it very much.

I plan on beginning to listen to new songs again soon. I've actually picked up the guitar for a few minutes for a few nights in a row. I am also going to try some painting as a creative outlet.

Thanks Marc. I'll run that virus scan. My PC has been acting funny lately. Microsoft uploaded (without asking) IE 8, I believe, and I liked 7, so I removed 8 and the PC has been acting funny ever since, but it might be a virus.

I actually listened to all the new songs tonight. I didn't think it was in me but once I got going I couldn't stop. I ended with Dick L.'s latest, which was apropos. That last part of the song brought tears to my eyes. Very touching.

Just noticed this..if that is the only browser you're using def keep it updated, security issues there. I really dislike IE and am a longtime Firefox fan/user. Google Chrome is pretty sweet too, might wanna consider trying a better browser...IE is WEAK!!

This happened to me from one of my email addresses recently. About half a dozen friends/family/colleagues were invited to a Nigerian pyramid selling scheme. An Egyptian one I could have understood. ( :drum: ). It could have been worse, like a Viagra advert. Whatever Viagra is! I don't even know. I certainly don't need it - some kind of ointment perhaps. :oops:

But do the songs and the painting thing. It's therapeutic. I've written a song this week. I'll try and put it up before Sunday. I find walking in the local countryside good for the soul. When it's not raining. My soul got very wet the other day, and pelted by hailstones. :(
