And I have found some gems. :-) And some stuff I would have
never seen otherwise!

Yep! But planning to thin it out for various reasons soon...

Soon means I have other things to do too, so it's not
priority, but definately going to do :-)

Same here. Even 'worship music.' I don't knock the new stuff, 
because I know people connect with it. It doesn't connect with
me though. :-)

That's cool! :-)

I have white noise going on ALL the time... I'm typing this reply
while a laptop reboots at work, and I have an earbud in my ear
listening to a podcast about 'Creation,' and I'm thinking about
two people I need to go down the hall to check on. :-)

Yeah - we took her mom to Nashville a few weeks ago for a trip,
and she drove most of the way there. I sat in the backseat and
played and sang while they talked. Then I took over driving - MIL
would up in the hospital - and the guitar didn't get touched
again all week...
