Nope, didn't need to. Besides, as discussed on "Car Talk" that is a
stupid idea unless you have a vacuum cleaner that is wired for a
flammable atmosphere... maybe the Air Force could sell you one, surplus...

And tell me, Nav, what's wrong with the Dutch? I'm half Irish and half
Dutch. I would really like to know why the New Zealanders hate the Dutch.
Thanks in advance...

laugh, believe me...)

Hehehee! Talk about pushing buttons...(good one, Barbie)

Katy,

You will be glad to hear that every spring I cut off my extremely long
natural nails. I used to think is was because of planting all my flowers,
but to tell the truth, it was getting difficult not to cut off my long nails
when I was slicing limes for my Coronas... :-)

Rhubarb pie can be pretty darn good... shoofly pie is nothing but sugar
& cream cooked up fancy in a pie crust. Although I will never turn down
a second piece of it, since anybody who makes shoofly pie is probably a
good old fashioned cook. I always thought that was a southern dish.
