    Thanks for the well wishes, Ben!

    Re: Yanni voices, It does make the original songs different, but rather than compare with the original songs, which are beautiful in their own right, I like to look at these as new songs, with the added dimension of vocals…. when looked at that way, they are truly fabulous.

    I’ve not heard of it with poodles, but I’m guessing any of the long snouted breeds could do it. Research has shown that long muzzled breeds have better olfactory senses than the short ones.

    It’s definitely worth it. I was completely blown away!

    Yeah, singing is fun. I’m looking forward to being back in the choir.

  23. grandplans Says:

    I have heard of, I think poodles, detecting cancer in people. it’s amazing what animals can do. they (animals) can aid humans in ways unimagionalble if humans wold allow them to do so. great vid!!

    I went to the web site to see about the yanni concert ad it looked like it was dates that I had to work. hmmm.. . . . . perhaps I’ll have to take a sick day to watch. LOL!! the videos were so awesome!!!!! contrats on the choir thing. singing is fun and is a lot of hard work!!!!!

  25. CircaRigeI Says:

    Well, no video from …
    Well, no video from the concert, but I’ve sent in a letter asking permission to use some of the music for a review… just waiting on a reply. I know for commentary purposes it IS fair use, but with the way YouTube is with regard to that stuff, I don’t want to take any chances.
