I'll check out your site - unfortunately my Spanish is nada - and with no excuse, having heard perfect Castillian Spanish all day everyday for 6 yrs. One of the great American deficiencies: monolingualism. We're making up for it though, our 3 yr old daughter is speaking wonderful Russian.

Your talent with the paint brush and written word combined with that uniquely individual point of view, has provided untold inspiration, direction, entertainment, and cause for reflection. Yes, I'll get a chance to hang with some heavyweights at NAMM, but the celebrity I'm really looking forward to finally meeting - hopefully this year - is the inimitable, the loved and feared, the one and only, the Thunder From Downunder! <BR/>The three of us send our best wishes for a happy Christmas 14 hrs ahead to you, Jen, Ryan, Danyon, and the precious Erin. <BR/>Vash droog, NicolaiNickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-15921225417409968592007-12-24T23:29:00.000-05:002007-12-24T23:29:00.000-05:00A sensational year by anyones standards in the wat...A sensational year by anyones standards in the watermedia business.<BR/>Can't say I didn't see it coming though Nick.
