Hi Kat

Well, there's a word other than romance that rings better in that expression (best left on the fireline, I suppose) which usually ends the discussion. Glad you got a chuckle. And it IS that hot.

I was issued new grass gear today (the bright yellow stuff you see firefighters wearing on brush fires) and was reminded of a friend's description of fighting brush fire. He says it's like putting on too many clothes and weeding next to your barbeque on a really hot day. He's right. I far prefer a structure, but we don't get to choose.
