Wow
That is great! I watched it several times. I have to say, it got to me. You know I am going to be there to see my little buddy's art displayed. I have a feeling it will sell quickly. You should have this video playing beside the painting. That's one of the best I have seen. The song is perfect. The slide show is wonderful. I will stop there. Words cannot do it justice. It speaks for itself.
thanks...
Evyn says
thanks! :)
WOW WOW WOW - What a fabulous piece of ART!
Mimi and Evyn,
Spectacular! Send to CNN --- amazing! What a terrific piece. And, send to Mr. Kilgore, while you are at it! Heck, they out to pay $100,000 for this piece of perfect ART!
Love it and thank you so much for sharing.............

Too much of the human element has been ignored throughout this tragedy.

thank you
you are right Randy... I wanted to put a face on this tragedy.. not just Evyn's... but all the children... all the residents... the whole community. We are survivors...
This disaster is Very Personal to me, and has forever changed my life... as well as Evyn's.
I think I will write "the book" that this is becoming. Thanks for your support.

You really do need to post this video/slide show so the nation can see it. If it were me, I'd send it to Tom Kilgore, and any other TVA official that you can. Oh, and maybe our local elected officials should view it too. Show them a human side of all this.
Randmart said it best in his post. "Too much of the human element has been ignored throughout this tragedy." Well said Randy.
Here's something that struck me as funny....Don't know why
Wife and I were checking out at Sam's Club tonight.....I looked up and the couple ahead of us were none other than Tom Kilgore and his wife. The only thing in their cart that caught my eye was a giant economy sized package of toilet paper.
