Having problems with message search?
hello!
I can't believe it is already the middle of September. This month has flown by!
Yesterday was quite the day of reflection for so many folks, and I want to say that I also reflected on what is important in my life. While family and friends topped the list, having the opportunity to play music and meet so many wonderful folks is a very close second. Thanks for making that possible!
If you haven't stopped by my website recently , please drop in. It has had a face lift and I'd love to hear your thoughts. http://www.kimbuchanan.com

Heart Smarts!
I have never tried this, and do not think that it is an urban legend, but I did receive this email from a good friend. I hope you never need to know this info, but just in case. . . .
HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE
Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, this article seemed to be in order. Without help, the person whose heart stops beating properly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.

However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.
Deep breaths and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

Here are some words about my new CD, Illusions:
"...Buchanan has delivered a musical package that beams with soul and sensitivity. Her songwriting is smooth and fluid, with lyrics fitting the cosmic, haunting and stormy backgrounds created by equally fine musicians... The production quality is exceptional and is best appreciated with headphones on."

"...Kim Buchanan ... is already causing a buzz up and down the east coast with her dreamy, trippy take on folk music. Her second CD, Illusions, is folk rock with a psychedelic edge and a soothing, meditative effect on the emotions"

"Kim Buchanan gets high praise for her blend of pop, folk and jazz . . . Buchanan showcases her mellow alto on a tasteful collection of tunes"
