And I lo...+JMJ+ <br /><br />Well, you're done early! =D <br /><br />And I <i>love</i> this one!

It works just as well with an older lady whose husband is right at home in her loving care. Probably better, actually, because now guests can get to bask in the light of their well-ordered domestic love as well! <br /><br />PS--No, it's not "musical" at all. =P Happy?
