    Kevin,
    Every once in awhile, someone posts something on here worth reading. Like many others, I felt what you wrote deep down inside. I am truly happy for you.
    Some of us have a lot more to contemplate and search for answers for than others. There may not be all the answers in PJ's music, but there is solace in knowing that there are a special group of people who have a depth of soul and love that helps us through our days. Thanks for letting us into your special moment.


    P.S. I am one jealous somabitch!

    hey man: I don't usually post here (mostly just view comments from other fans) , but when I saw your story; I had to post a reply. That is such a great story and the pictures are great; memories to treasure for quite some time. It also sounds like you have some pretty cool/good friends; which is also very awesome. Best of luck to you in your future endeavors. A true inspiration!!! Thanks again, for sharing your very personal experience with everyone.

    Great story... really fun to read.

    That must have been an amazing experience. I guess you can tell, because your face says it all in the pictures!

    Congrats on the other accomplishments too, and good luck in teaching.

    very cool.
    Take time to see the sky,
    Find shapes in the clouds.
    Hear the murmur of the wind
    and touch the cool water.
    Walk softly,
    we are intruders,
    tolerated briefly
    In an infinite universe.

    Great story man...Just great!!
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears

    And I'm bored to tears.......

    That is such a great story to have. You must be a tremendously strong individual to endure such hardship, while achieving such success. I can only imagine your will.

    By the way, was that leonard cohen on Ed's shirt. And check out his wardrobe.
    All together now...
