I was sitting in the dentist's waiting room yesterday and happened to pick up a People magazine. I was delighted to read that topmost on Tom Cruise's wish list is to "climb Mount Everest," and that he expects to make the trip sometime soon. I know you will all join me in wishing Tom a safe and exciting trip. Perhaps you could append a stanza onto your polka in his honor--you know the one I mean.
