Hmmmm? Speaks them but does them not?

Now where does that apply so well? *Oh, I know! I recall somebody speaking
words about delivering several tons of coffee beans by sail from Belize to
Texas. Does that fit into the category of speaking them but doing them not?


You will have to ask Joe that, but from what I have read in the news
about El Lago Coffee they are still selling lots of coffee. I ordered
some myself off e-bay. They are using the profits to get another boat
and finish what they started. You should buy some of the coffee and
support the El Lago Coffee Co. efforts to reduce carbon emissions and
dependence on oil. Unless you're one of them who thinks there is no
future in sail transport.

It's nice to hear you are now off the coast of Africa zig zagging
between hurricanes in your mind, I cant wait to hear Popeyes reports.

If you ever get to the better part of Florida (Miami) come on by the
house and visit.
