First set of thanks, of course, goes out to God, family and friends.

But this is the site that I check every day, sometimes several times a day, and I'm very thankful to have a place to share and learn with some of the most knowledgeable fans anywhere in the world.

This is the site where I have shared ups and downs with all of you. It is one of the first places that I confided about my Parkinson's Disease diagnosis two years ago (by the way, still doing well, joined a Parkinson's Boxing Club that's pretty cool!)

It is the site where I learn news about things I care about, often before just about any of the major affiliates have come out with it!

It's where I get to share thoughts about my ten Stones shows (since '75), debate which album is best, talk about individual tracks, and wonder, like all of us, how long this wonderful musical train will keep rolling.

We're not always in agreement about stuff, and we're not always sweetness and nice with each other....but that also describes a family, and IORR people are the best kind of people around.

So, in summary, I'm thankful for YOU, fellow Stones fans! May all of us have good health, good music, and maybe that one more chance to see our band in concert!

Cheers!

Right back at ya' mongoose!
