(BTW, Jarn's Journal was in but due to a lot of conflicting factors (including that I can't sign up until sometime Wednesday by which time I was already on a plane and got my medical appointment cancelled inflight) I didn't sign up. Next week's is scheduled, but I may be unable to sign up by the time signup is available--I'm typing this from a hospital bed.)Sue Ann Bowlinghttp://jarianconfederation.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5555960310987201510.post-46214450070340147042014-09-13T19:09:51.648-07:002014-09-13T19:09:51.648-07:00Anton seems to always be dancing on the thinnest, ...Anton seems to always be dancing on the thinnest, most dangerous edge.
