Not this orangutan! Somebody else is OK but not this one!" Second, IF Krystyna is willing to knock her door for us, her neighbors would probably think: "Who is that? Is that her daughter? Maybe. Both of them are look- alike. Why doesn't she open the door?" (SORRY, just kidding..:-D... don't take it seriously...) Third, IF we set up a calendar and go to her house one person a day and ask her to return to music, she would probably revise the lyric of Yearning to this: "But I'm still yearning for more, I feel not at home, right now..." Fourth, IF Basia is 'sneaking out the backdoor with a grin", at least we could meet Kevin. Maybe he would say, "Go to Ewa's house, you'll find her there." Fifth, IF we couldn't meet anyone in her house, well, at least, we can enjoy the beautiful Jaworzno and the hospitality. Who knows, we would be in the headline of the newspaper: "Basia's International Fans Visiting Her" (in Polish, of course). Well, those are only my imaginations. The fact is, one thing that I (and maybe we) can do is waiting (and hoping, and praying...) Czesc, Desianto F. W. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!

Yes, Krystyna is close to her if Basia is in Poland but please don't ask her because, I think, maybe she is busy enough right now. Desianto F. W. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Does she like chocolate? Blank CD's? Well, maybe, it would be better if the CD's are not blank but full of our photos, bios, etc. so she, at least, will know that she still have some faithful fans (who ask for nothing but to hear her voice again). The problem is that, does anyone here know her address in Poland? Desianto F. W. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
