i love you, Jimmy Page!!!

...and yes, I love your beautiful, kind-hearted wifey, too...

Another hurricane is on its way, and our soldiers and Iraqi citizens keep dying every day. There is nothing but bad, sad, hopeless news everywhere we turn.

Truthfully, I completely live for beautiful moments of positive news like this. That it involves you doesn't surprise me in the least but it just makes my heart all the gladder for it. Thank you and Bless you for making my day once again, when I needed it the most!!!

"The greatest satisfaction is not the decoration. It is knowing that I am able to help someone who needs help," Page said.


There goes my hero....
