@ deankripp -- Thank you! :) 1000 placements sounds good... :D

It was great meeting you too. ( ... and it was great to find that you smile as much in real life as it seems like you do based on your status updates... :D )

@Jeff -- Thank you so much! :)

@Vincent -- Thank you Vincent! Yes, it wasn't long ago this was a dream and a prayer which seemed far off - but here I am. All those small steps I kept taking moving forward added up to this journey - lead me to this place. With the risk of sounding like one of those books with "wise words about life" - keep pushing forward because the deal you are praying and working toward may be around the next corner. :)

@Cat Herder

I told Michael that there was only one thing I regretted from the Rally and that was that I did not find him and shake his hand. There is actually one more thing I regret. That is that I did not say anything to you in front of the group when I had a chance. I didn't because I knew I would cry - but this time I will take a moment to share my thoughts... I told you some of this at the Rally, but I want others to know as well.

Thank you for all you do for your composers. Thank you for all you've done for me. Every year around New Years I write down my goals and dreams for the coming year, for the next 5 years, and for the next 10 years. Two years ago I wrote down "Write music for TV" and that was the year I signed with you. Last New Year I wrote "Land a Theme for a TV show" and that happened this year. Over the last year you have taught me lots about the business and brought me some amazing opportunities. I have seen you fight for your composers (couldn't have a better boss) and I know you are just and fair in how you deal with things. I am so happy that through TAXI (and Allen) I came in contact with you.

Thank you for the comment you have left here. It means the world.

Thank you!

@ Barry

Thank you dear friend! One of my favorite memories from the Rally is actually the time you told someone this story and you were speaking with a Swedish accent. :lol: Thank you for being such an awesome friend. :)

@ Allen

Dear Allen.... Thank you for your kind words and for the friendship. I am so blessed to know you. Don't know how to say what I want to so I will simply say once more... Thank you!

@rnrmachine

Thank you so much!!! :)
