I'm somewhat limited in what Mercenary Graphics can produce this month, due to a crash of windows xp that scattered my doc and photo files all over the hard drive, and file system fails to regroup despite reformatting.

I've recovered the photo files, and burning CDs for the doc files as I can't transfer this mess to what is on the way, new computer temp laptop from a friend, covers the age of ask, and friend shall deliver rescue to keep this blog, my poetry publications on www.thebluedoodle.com under Jim's Musings, and facilitate another aspect of what I do, real estate research, also flyers, business cards and posters.

So, computer on the way, thanks for reading. Will edit some more tags while I'm here.
