What is up with that? Have I been that busy? Have I been so neglectful? Well I do have some news. Tomorrow I'm submitting a copyright application for 45, at least 45 of my songs. It's another step on my way to letting go of my music, putting out there for you all. And I hope to get that done early next year and then have it available for Donovanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14590776320966131561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200445.post-53885065449807727682008-09-13T06:04:00.000+00:002008-09-13T06:06:19.776+00:00Go Fish. <!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--> If you like to fish, you’re in the right place. Guam offers terrific fishing for anglers of all angles. Rod and reel, spear fishing, throw nets and gill nets, trolling, bottom fishing, the choices are as plentiful as the coral is colorful. Surrounded by deep water and blessed with good weather most of the year, Guam offers particularly Donovanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14590776320966131561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200445.post-13170356276717682312008-09-13T06:02:00.000+00:002008-09-13T06:04:25.302+00:00Mico and Stevie groove smoothly <!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--> The smooth, soulful R&B grooves of Mico and Stevie Scott are a perfect match for the warm cozy wood accented interior of Roy’s at the Hilton Guam Resort. Every Friday and Saturday night, the husband and wife duo, with Mico on piano and vocals and Stevie alternately on vocals, piano, bass, guitar or drums, lights Donovanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14590776320966131561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5200445.post-23023464184705993042008-09-13T06:01:00.000+00:002008-09-13T06:02:37.735+00:00Piti’s Patrick Palomo plays piano pleasingly. <!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--> Catch jazz pianist/composer Patrick Palomo at the Westin Hotel lobby bar on a Wednesday evening and you’ll find soothing piano jazz, an intelligent mix of Palomo’s original songs, jazz standards and the occasional pop tune.

Guam’s Beautiful Southern Side <!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--> Quaint and quiet even today, sunny and sleepy Inarajan lies by the ocean along Guam’s southern tip, like an island lady napping on a white sandy beach under a canopy of palms.

The U.S. Geological Survey recently cited a report that just the annual cost to the territory associated with snake-related power outages is about $4.5 million.

The house was quiet, the air conditioner off. Classical piano danced in the corner, quietly out of the radio. The wind rattled the patio door in its tracks. The ceiling fan whirled and jiggled. A car passed below, its exhaust note deep.Donovanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14590776320966131561noreply@blogger.com
