Brett-

It's a good thing that the rifle was not loaded. It wasn't loaded, was it?

"No good deed will go unpunished!"

That's my proposed slogan for the Customs Service.

I still remember the customs office in Addis Ababa which refused to release my mother's Christmas fruit cake without the payment of a substantial fee. It's probably still there nesting on the shelf, as good as the day it was baked.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
