singing sounds like.<<

Amen! I worry about that, too. I've been watching (I'm rather embarrassed
to admit) American Idol this season, and there have been so many voices that
I thought would be really good if they just weren't so darn nasal. I just
hate that. On the other hand, I've also been impressed with a couple of
the singers that I thought were just plain wonderful.

>>Barbershop quartet: Briefly: Fantastic!<<

Weren't they, though. I forgot to mention them in my e-mail, but I was
really impressed, and enjoyed them every moment they were on.

Les, it sure is good to have you back.
