I chuckled at the combination of wine, cheese and hot dogs. :D<br /><br />P.S.S. I think perhaps that Loreena Mckennitt has already captured the moonbeams in her voice.

He walked on<br />Into moonless night<br />Carrying his strange trophy.Purple Cowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11016727639028322093noreply@blogger.com
