Gang, I just wanted to let you know that I just received an Email from Ashana who, let's face it, has been MIA for a while.  It turns out that she has just been released from the hospital.  Fortunately, it appears that it has turned out to  NOT be anything serious.  Needless to say, due to her present situation she has not been able to get to a computer to retrieve Emails or even get on a cell phone to retrieve voice mails.  Even if she could have, she certainly was not in any shape to return them.  So for all of you who have been anxiously wondering what has been going on with her, that's the story.
  My goodness, birthday number 22 ONE week and in the hospital the NEXT.  Well, that's just the way life works.  Makes us all take some time to pause and think.  Maybe she REALLY IS "Over the Hill"...KIDDING JUST KIDDING!  Rest up Ashana, and get well REAL SOON!!
