Sorry for the delay. Had a fried modem as the result of a lightning strike in my yard. No further damage except a tree got its bark blown off. Tree’s still there but probably needs to be taken down. I spent the day dealing with the new modem. Just now got back on here. Damn, I miss this place bad when I’m not here. Just over 24 hours of no internet. I’m as dependent on it as I am food and shelter! 🙂 BTW, I’m not sure on the other Z\_3, but figured if somebody mentioned one they knew Gere played trumpet in it would jog my memory. Did he play any in “Chicago”? I saw it less than three months ago and can’t recall. How did that get Picture of thje Year? ---
