You worked the Idiotarod? Sweet!
As the internet’s main goal seems to be to prove no one is alone in something, I’m happy to see others comparing everything that both Nina Gordon and Louise Post do (they both have albums out this month), and then compare that to when they were together. Love, Todd, with a PhD in Verucasaltology. (Do you need video of yourself as “Lobot” in Empire Strikes Back? Cause you know I have it. Now where to post that?)
I’m #7! I’m #7!
