3)  Words of Inspiration.
"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic
hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.
There's also a negative side."  -Hunter S. Thompson

4)  Four lines of New Smith Song:

You may see me walking down the street, sighing;
You may see me walking down the street, dying;
You may see me walking down the street, smiling;
But you will never, ever, see me
     walking down the street, dialing.

With kindest regards,
