what made me smile is that you went through the trouble to pick up the phone and sing to me over the phone. While i love email and facebook wall posts, your phone call provided a bit of the old school personal touch that is so missing these days from the art of communication. thanks for thinking of me. g ----- Original Message ----- From: Ellen Rubin To: infoshare@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 12:23 PM Subject: [infoshare] Re: Very belated wishes to Ellen Rubin Thanks for the good wishes, Gus. Most people ask me not to sing. I am no Lynnette or Maria! I am wondering what made you smile--my bad rendishen of Happy Birthday, or just the fact that you were in a great mood in honor of your birthday!! I know that you are celebrating all month and then some...but my birthday celebration is over for the moment, but I could easily reconsider continuous celebration like you! Grin.
