John Bobbitt (with Shay Tochner) (We feel close to this song.  We heard an early version at a New Year's concert that Paxton did that year.  And when she lived in Manassas, Christina worked an ambulance crew with the guy who retrieved the missing member.)

    Now *that's* heroic recovery work. Rarely has surname driven or at least suggested destiny (perhaps also in the heat of the moment to the aggrieved, assaulted Mrs. B) than "Bobbit"...

    Though for reasons obscure to me Chrome refuses to give me the audio of the "John Bobbit" song...Google specifically disapproves. Don't Be Emasculating.

    Tood, it was in the bushes of a nearby 7-11 -- a discovery that should put one off from ordering another 7-11 hotdog. Ever.

    George, Paxton is still going strong. He's living in Northern Virginia now and is very active locally so we get to see him perform quite a bit.

    I should've added Paxton to my DC stack. Might still.
