(Re: Opinions) Hey, in case anyone is interested there is a "Sweetest Interview" CD on ebay. I had a bid in but it is too high for me now. One of you probably outbid me. I really wanted to have Basia saying "Hi, this is Basia and you are listening to Smooth Jazz" everytime I opened up windows or downsized something. I don't even know if my hubby knows how to do that off a CD. He surely got Maynard Ferguson playing his trumpet everytime we do anything. Even when the screen saver comes on after we are in bed...... there goes one more Maynard.
