My 12 year old daughter approached me last night at the kitchen table where I sat with over 50 cds that have yet to be aired on Folk Plus.She wanted to discuss having a halloween party. I said I had my show to plan and now was not the time to discuss something which would take such planning. Then we both got the idea that she would help to compile the show. In fact, she looked at the pile of cds on the table and began screening the music with her 12 year old tastes. She compiled this list after spending hours and hours chosing what to air.

Her comments were:  "Sometimes it took me a really long time to chose because I loved most of of the tunes"
and "Sometimes it took me really long time to chose because I didn't like many of the tunes"
and "How do you do this every week!"

This morning when she got up and saw me typing up the list, I was trying to put them in the order I thought were her favorites were first. Her comment was "All the ones I picked, I liked. Mix up the order" Miranda is a string students and enjoyed the celtic flavored music. She also seemed to focus on the slow thoughtful stuff.

We have yet to talk about the halloween party.

Our area is close to having "gaming". I am thinking about two hours on gambling, card games, etc. Any ideas out there I'll see what I can put together. Miranda wondered in this song, if the uncle had meant to instruct her to kill him. I said I didn't think so.
