Mick here.

My fellow Beef Brother is a master of understatement, to say the least. I loaded up the CD player with 10 CD's so we would have plenty to listen to on the long drive. Eight hours later we arrived at Rick and Heathers house with the CD's unplayed, but all the major problems of the world solved. Jed is a great guy, he is just wrong on most political things, but I will work on him. Course, he says the same things about me. We would have arrived sooner but our beloved Jeri called and we had to stop for two hours or so to chat with her ....... LOL. At any rate, that's our story as to why we were late. We don't want to say what really held us up, but if any of you hear from the Canadian Mounted Police, please say that you haven't heard from us and that we don't even like leprechan's arse anyway!! Tell 'em that you know for a fact that we are vegetarian. That way our alibi's will match. It's based on the old Irish axiom "We tell the yarn, you swear to it".

We arrived last night to a wonderful feed, great stories, lovely cats and music to the wee hours. I have a feeling I will be tired when this is done.

All the best and more later,

Mick
