Jim,

I am commeting here because it appears that your "In a Blue Room" blog may be inactive. I just want to tell you what a magical story you have created.

Warm Regards,

an Alice

I loved this post JIm! Especially the picture of you doing the 'Wild Thing"! I did know that MS was gay, but I don't remember how I knew that. Maybe it just seemed obvious to me, but I didn't know about his 50 year closeted life- that is very sad.
