Regarding that $5, Dan. I spent it bribing all these folk to post this stuff. Only trouble is, Jennifer forgot the obligatory "BS" in the thread title!

Rick called Caroline and told her this thread existed and she got on me at dinner tonight to tell her about it. I'd been trying for a couple of evenings to think of a cyber-way to twist my big toe in the dirt and say "Aw, shucks, fellers an' girls," but, darn it, I couldn't find one. So, I was just going to let the thread die its natural death. See what you got me into, Rick? From now on, you're gonna have to buy your own socks, although I know you once plotted to meet "bbc" there. Remember, now, she's just a kid and doesn't get the old fart discount!

Enough already, kids. But thanks to all of you for the gracious words. Tomorrow I'll try to earn 'em.
