I couldn't remember a Beatles song that was appropriate or included the words Thank You. Of course when I consulted my books I was shamed into remembering "Thank You Girl." A very early Beatles hit, B side of a 1963 "From Me To You" single. John and Paul wrote the tune to thank their many female fans (have you seen early Beatles video and heard the screaming?) The attached video/audio is a great opportunity to hear the early lads in the studio with take 1 of the recording. You can hear the authentic recording style before computers, and studio trickery. The first line sums up why I chose this song today. My angle? I have been the recipient of two unbelievable gifts this past week +. Dave hosted a dinner last night for Taco Tuesday as well. I know a few of the contributors, but most are anonymous and very generous. As we fly out of SeaTac tomorrow, we will not have any worries about finances for the travel, lodging, out of pocket medical expenses, etc. Yvonne and I are very fortunate to have the support of so many, we can't come close to thanking you properly. Please know that as I fight hard and return with a better prognosis, we will visit with as many of you as possible and thank you in person. We are visiting our son Andrew on the way to Houston in tropical Steamboat Springs CO, (26 degrees yesterday) then arrive in Houston on the 15th. I am very confident, since attitude is a big part of the battle- I will be on top of my game. God Bless everyone, keep the faith, and Live Happy!
