    Rocky, have you seen the amazing work with music and patients who have alzheimers and other age related issues? There was an amazing documentary a few years ago about a man who made ipods of the favorite era music of nursing home patients and the results were nothing short of miraculous.

    It seems that listening to music stimulates parts of the brain which have become dormant, so to speak. At any rate, patients who hadn't communicated or smiled in years, were laughing and talking and dancing and singing.

    I cried so much when I saw the power of music.

    Agreed about the Music Magic.....hearing music from one's own era brings back many happy memories! Sorry the Saints lost, Villival. Actually, I follow the Seahawks because I find Russell Wilson fascinating to watch! My favorite Christmas gift as a child was a football!!

    You know I was just kidding about the Saints.

    Foxie Loxie with a football at Christmas. How adorable.
