Sorry, I mispelled "grieving".

Apparently "greaving" means "to clean a ship's bottom".  And yes,  
here in the music biz, I've experienced something like that.  Perhaps  
an odd sort of Freudian slip? Reminds me of the time I mis-spelled  
"feast" at a spelling bee.  A dark blankness surrounded my brain. It  
was as if I had never heard such a word.  Oddly enough, I spelled it  
"feist", which apparently means "small dog".  That was a great suck  
moment in my young life, nearly cried as I recall.  Now I have 3  
feists.  Coincidence?

Hmmm.  Haven't learned much in the past 30 years.
