    Default A Joe Walsh Christmas Miracle

    When HOTE first came out, I sent a letter to the Eagles because I was completely fascinated by them. My mom told me not to expect to get anything back but deep down I really hoped I would get something. After checking the mail box everyday for like a year and a half, I realized it was wishful thinking to hope I would get something from the Eagles. Then, in October, my friend encouraged me to write a letter just to Joe Walsh. I thought what the heck. I might as well give it a try. So I sent a letter to Joe and I checked the mail box everyday like I did before. After a while, I told myself to give it up because it was wishful thinking to get anything from any Eagle but for some reason I still felt the need to check the mail every day. So this Saturday, the day after Christmas, I walked to the mail box thinking that I might just get a Christmas miracle. I brought the mail in the house and sorted through it. Then I saw an envelope addressed to me. I looked at the first line of the return address and it said "Walsh". Excitement started to build up in me so I looked at the last line of the return address and sure enough, it said Los Angeles, California. I started jumping up and down, screaming. I ran into the living room to show my mom. I said, "Mom! It came! After all this waiting, it came! It's from Joe! I can't believe it! I thought it was just wishful thinking! It's a Christmas miracle!" I was literally crying tears of joy as I opened it. Joe returned the letter I sent him with an autographed picture directly signed to me and a Joe Walsh guitar pick. It was so nice of Joe to take the time to do that. I got the best Christmas miracle ever.

    People talking about us they got nothing else to do. When it all comes down we will still come through in the long run.

    SRMW - I am thrilled for you ... I know you must be on Cloud 9. That was definitely sweet and thoughtful of Joe to send those to you. I know you will cherish them forever!

    Wow, that's wayyy cool. Your faith and persistence paid off.

    The guitar pick looks prismatic. Is it made of abalone? Very pretty.
