10. No, but I've kissed Cristina

She's on the right. Never kissed Hollis who's there on the left.

So I guess you're still better than me. But everybody knew that anyway.

11. no, i'm worse. the whole time i was thinking, does Ray know I'm shuffling

along a slowly as I can, just to keep walking along side him? i'm sure he sensed it.
at least i asked before i kissed him.
is this the band you're seeing on ...

12. No, not the Sunday band.

The women pictured live in your town, and they're not in a band any longer.

Although I wouldn't mind kissing a couple of Sunday's women.

But you're right: O Jays they are not. And you are worse than I.

You win the prize.

14. I'm sure you do know someone who knows them.

They've lived in NYC a long time. I used to go out drinking a lot with C & her husband and other friends in DC, and attended their wedding in Irvington, NY at that Octagon house many years back.

I'll pm you details on the who.

Yes, I think I will see Viva at Produce Row, and will bear your message. I should mention that I have seen some of the Produce Row waitstaff naked at an outdoor hotspring out past Carson, WA. Good looking people, both in and out of clothes. So Viva's choice of pub for the meetup is excellent indeed.

Here's some unusual soul power:

16. Yeah, naked as a jaybird, as they say in Kansas.

And I even crossed a state line in the commission.

Today, however, I pledge to remain clothed.

17. at the pub that's probably the best idea, clothes

but it's your weekend. so if you want to run around in your birthday suit, don't let us stop you from the naked handstands or anything.
got to get the party started somehow.
have fun.

18. I don't think naked handstands would get me many kisses.

So I hope nobody doses my beer.

Have fun your bad self.

8. When I was a kid my sisters and I would

sneak in the basement and do our little girl group impression of Labelle singing Lady Marmalade because my mother banned us from singing that song. As a little girl, I didn't know at the time what those catchy french lyrics meant.

I would love to see Chaka in concert. I especially liked her early work with Rufus. They looked and sounded so funky.
