Did you ever get to the Amazing Race finale party this year? I wanted to, but had a little game party b/w the Giants and Packers I needed to host

Hey, thanks, Moonie!

Yeah, I went again, though this one was a lot more low-key than in past seasons. Part of it was the time of year, another that it followed the All-Stars season, and perhaps most important, CBS only flew in the winners for the next day's Early Show, instead of several (or all) teams as in the past. At least Phil was there again, though. And after the finale, we were able to watch the 4th quarter and overtime at the bar. :)

Now the All-Stars season finale? That was a lot of fun. Got to hang out with a lot of the racers at the party and the luncheon both.

Welcome from me as well!

Who are you and should I know the answer to that question?

He's Mark Dixon, WWTBAM contestant from a prior century.

I remember once he was in a hotel room in Philly covered in females. The photographic evidence is probably still out there, somewhere, & Harv is probably still trying to find a phone charger

Hi, Kay!

Who me, still singing? I couldn't live without it. :D In addition to the usual choir stuff, I'm also doing more theater again, which has been fun.

Speaking of choir, here's an article about a very exciting project of ours from last fall (be sure to click on the "online extras: audio slideshow" to the left; it's very cool):

Christ Church story

Kids are doing ok... some struggles, but things are coming around. How're your girls?

Mark

Ok!

I am someone who you will either find as annoying and abrasive and arrogant or funny and straight-talking and supportive.

If you are read enough of my stuff, you will pretty much fall into one of those catagories. Although, I am told that there are a few who have little or no reaction to me - which still shocks and amazes me.

Who I think I am is fun-loving, perceptive, straight-talking and interested in making a difference.

Oh yeah, no matter which side you find yourself on, you will think I am mouthy.
