“M, I have always appreciated the variety of your expressions. Everyone should have an expressive face. Of course I always enjoy your music. Hell, I just enjoy you. I often think of your years at The Quill and savor the memories. There goes Marideth: Funny to curmudgeonly to grandmotherly to outraged in the time it takes to walk the length of the newsroom.

my life and times 
You looked great up there, Marideth!
Terrific photos!
Keeping it alive! Glad to see you on stage.
Takes me back to the Rendez Vous when you were playing with Dinnis and Margi, A very impressionable time in my life. Thank you! I finally saw Winters Bone. It was very intense and very close to home from living in Willow Springs. Medical Meth Card? I’m not sure that would help the problem either. As a film it was spectacular and extremely inspiring for low budget cult film makers. Thanks, Brenner
These are the best photos ever!! I saw Frank snapping away…what a fantastic photographer!!
I love these photos…makes me really miss you!
