I haven't heard anything. They haven't cashed my check, but then again, I haven't gotten any response, either. I sent a few email messages, but didn't get a single reply. It's a shame, because I've never ever heard a Moxy song, and the CDs were a 29th birthday present to myself (July 23). Is anybody "official" reading this newsgroup? Is it personal? Because I'm from Denver? (That was the reason "Great Big Sea" couldn't send me any CDs from their web site.)

For general elucidation, the American "smarties" are the hard version of pixi stix. :-} Seriously, they're pastel colored candies made out of compressed powdered sugar and a little (very little...) flavoring. They come in cellophane rolls with about twenty smarties in a roll. They're about 5/16 of an inch across, 1/8 deep, and concave on both sides. Man, am I anal retentive or something?
