Oh, no, CP, think nothing of it, we are all here just to provide backdrop so you can tell your jokes over and over. I can well remember my uncle Jack who used to tell us about how he worked with Lawrence of Arabia, which was interesting up to about the 50th time. His daughter sent me a note some years ago saying that when he went into the nursing home, she once asked (out of desperation) him to tell her about the time he worked with Lawrence of Arabia. "Who?" he replied. She then told him his own story word perfect, which he lost interest in halfway through and went back to picking at the buttons on his shirt.
