It was absolutely ridiculous how difficult it was to pick only ten out of those fabulous nominations. This was a great idea for a special ten. I think it really fired up our passion for the tens after our summer sabbatical.

I am tickled to see Blue in Green make a reappearance, hopefully not for the last time. And I am over the moon about Crazy Don joining us! Yay! I love me some Don. He's got great taste in music. I wish he would participate in the tens every week. I'm sure edna would make him some brownies as a bribe. :grin:

Okay, I think I'm finished with my Friday morning happy fest. Rock on, y'all. :rockon:
