perfectly.
(even though my eyes have that puzzled look at the moment). I truly =
will
get around to buying your book-I promise. I would, of course, prefer an
autographed copy, but I'm wondering if you have marketed that book to =
the
libraries yet? It would be nice for those of us with limited budgets
(especially after making saxophone purchases) Perhaps we could all put =

of
it at each library-say maybe 20 copies or so at each one? It would be =

purchase. What do you say?=20
Well........... Maybe I'll simply give some saxophone lessons. I'm =
just
