Hey y’all, just wanted to say I wrote a sarcastic and sweet love song “to all of MAN-kind” and posted it for your enjoyment at www.youtube.com/jessdelfino. It’s for my Song of the Month club which allows me to try out new songs before recording them for posterity and it allows you to hear my new songs if you choose to, and get discounts to shows, etc. If you join the Song of the Month club (by emailing me at jessdelfino@yahoo.com subject: SOTM) you get a free SOTM club card and other goodies.
Also, below is a great page of quotes about women I found online. Some of them are really terrific. Enjoy!
Truly,
Jessica
