It's very rude to post in increasingly large fonts. We can read just as well with the standard font. Are you American or something? Oh, sorry sweetie

Regarding my use of font:

I am having difficulty masking my enthusiasm. Please be patient and kind to me during this adjustment phase.

Now, for the down-low on how the karaoke evening went:

It was beyond my wildest dreams!

(notice I have tried emphasizing my point with color this time, not size! If you are proud of me for "behaving," feel free to give me a rep point! )

These are the songs I did:

Delilah (sung with a friend)

It is notable to mention that our group received "sponsorship" for its singing! Yes! Money went to charity in honor of our performances! I'll post some photos soon.

Hi Lynn,

They didn't used to!
I think Physical still works! A gf in the States told me that Youtube was having some problems for some reason.
