Dude,

Sounds like a great place to hang out (and shop).

Hi Micky,

It's good to see you have a new poem up.

It'll be real interesting to see what Ifeanyi Menkiti does there. There are many possibilities. It seems he will be more organized with the books for one.

Thanks for stopping by, and leaving a note behind.

Yours,
Rus
