27 Sep 99 - 11:36 AM (#118096) Subject: RE: Thought for the Day (Sept 27) From: Neil Lowe Peter T...what a wonderful thought for the day, as are all your thoughts for the day. I LIVE for your thought for the day. Is there a better thought for the day than yours? I think not. Nor will there ever be. Until the veritable end of time. Regards, Neil (who is shamelessly hoping Peter T is independently wealthy, and will see fit to throw a few shiny coppers his way) |
