I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;ve joined now as I&#8217;m finding both old and new friends there. It is a Ning.com group, a social networking site, devoted to the promotion of live blues music, something that I enjoy very much. LiveBluesWorld.com [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Snow is in the forecast for Alabama. Central Alabama, were I live, rarely gets snow so it always brings excitement. People who have to cope with snow regularly just can&#8217;t understand the panic that the mention of snow in a weather forecast brings to the people of Alabama.

Here in the southeastern US, it is a tradition to eat black eyed peas on new year&#8217;s day. It is said to bring good luck to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was interviewed by a writer for the Montgomery Advertiser in 1996. When the article was published, I was surprised to find that the writer identified me as an Internet guru.
