My sincere apologies to Lorraine Walla the GC of GANG and Gothamites 
everywhere for not making the March GANG meeting.  It was my intention to 
be there I even cancelled some things but time ran out.

I want to make it clear that it was not cold feet or stage freight.  If 
anything it should have been the audience that was scared.  You see my 
singing sounds exactly like a cat being strangled.  It was also my 
intention to sign the song, not only to direct attention away from my 
singing but more importantly offend the deaf also.  Why not? II's all in 
the name of a good time.

If none of you has made it to a GANG meeting, make it a point.  Always good 
food and friends.

All the Best,

David Stein
Queens Group Chair
