But woman who marry woman call their wives a "wife" too. Oh, I guess the original point was lost in translation. :-) I am not as confidant the narrator is writing from a male perspective like I am with Natalie Merchant's Beloved Wife song. - -----Original Message----- From: bird_of_peace62@yahoo.com To: francisd@lasd.k12.pa.us; LarryI@mail2larry.com; mad-mission@smoe.org Sent: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 8:28 AM Subject: Re: MM: Patty writing from a male perspective well I finally ordered my copy of the new CD..... !

I'm a bit behind in my listening of Patty CDs I've bought. (e.g. I've been told Rain is a great song) > Not to mention the line in Top OF The World "I wished > I loved Jesus the way my wife does"", Still, in today's world, that isn't definitively one way or the other.

Okay then, let's do a tree (if there are enough people interested). Karen, Dave, John B and Randy, I assume the three of you want a copy. Dave offered to be a branch. Who else is interested in being a branch or a... what do they call the last ones, a leaf? For the first branch, I can post the files online for awhile instead of mailing a CD, but it is in wav format and is about 600 megs. If you are interested in my doing that, let me know.
