This was great Graham! He stealthily gave the credit to God. :) The really scary thing is that around 10AM this morning, I heard "Do You Think I'm Sexy?" on the local classic rock station. Then low & behold you put this video up shortly afterwards. :) I'm sure (& hope) you've been busy. Been kind of missing you out here. Gonna go share this on Twitter now. ;)
