[Vision2020] Fw: Why I didn't vote for Brady

[Sue Hovey]

Yes, this is the one I was thinking of. And it seems to me I have it on a 
K.T. Oslin cd, as well.  Life choices/fairness whatever..  Put Another Log 
on the Fire is what my husband tries (emphasize tries) to sing to me when he 
wants to get my goat.
