  2. Well Mary you sad it all I guess that’s why I only want to run up to Ignazio & give him a real lloonng hug

      1. Yep we’re all looking forward to the next concert or where we can get to see them. As far as making the most of it he would probably have to get security to force my hands open behind his head & then he could run out the door. Then he wold probably run the next time he saw me & I would have botched it for good
