I've had invitations to play on several TV shows. Every single time I leave after playing, there are people's faces or a story someone told me or *something* that stays with me. Perhaps my favorite thing is watching serious people in a hurry notice the music, turn their heads and a big smile shines on their faces. I often get a thumbs up or a nod or a wave. I *love* that, love thinking that I may have changed their mood.Ilana Katz Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689113283649822827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-90415438881081662822012-06-16T14:07:39.618-04:002012-06-16T14:07:39.618-04:00jack, you are too funny.

ICKY.

The devastation caused by testosterone poisoning alone is unacceptable, sometimes. <br /><br />In Peru they grow some 3200 of the 4500 species of potato in the world, including one kind that lowers the testosterone levels in men. Women feed these to male relatives who are acting overly aggressive. I say send them to the cooks of every single world leader. <br /><br />Ilana, I tried downloading your book this morning, but it appears not to be available for Nook. Will it be at some future time? Thank you. Looking forward to reading this one!Karen in Ohionoreply@blogger.com
