Sorry if the recap is not perfect this week. There were glitches in my recordings, so there might be parts incomplete or even in error. I am fairly certain there should be a song after "Turn the Beat Around". If Billboardboy or anybody else knows of songs missing, feel free to point them out.

Dear Casey,
This isn't exactly a "long" distance dedication, but I'm making this request because this week is the last time I'll see my parents for awhile. You see, Sunday August 17th is move-in day at UNT (The University of North Texas). And like most students, my parents are helping me move into my dorm room. It's a big deal for us because I'm an only child, and my mom & dad are the 2 most important people in my life. They have always taught me well and made sure that I had a good life. Today my journey as a young man begins, and I just want to thank them for all they've done for me. So Casey, could you please play "Music of My Heart"? I never would have been able to fly if they had not lifted me up. I love you Mom & Dad, and I thank the Lord for blessing me with such a loving family.
Sincerely,
Steven
