D'oh!

Which is unfortunate because it's a really nice and really expensive
gift - the kind of thing...well, let's just say that Tim is very, very
generous.

I'm not begging... so stow it!


Oh I'm not saying anything about begging.

I mean, it's just a shame that you can't afford all those government
taxes and duties for one these fine hand crafted expensive gifts that
Tim, out of the goodness of his heart, gave us just because he's a
generous kind of guy.

I mean the just insurance to cover the cost of the gift in shipping -
well, let's just say that it was quite startling.

Tim is a very generous person I'll tell you what.

Too bad you can enjoy one these fine fine devices.

Tom,
Don has his pride, he will not beg for anything, unless it is something
his government can give him. ;)

I'll probably stow one on the boat, but I may have to get a bigger boat
now. Maybe a GB 42' or so would be worthy.

lol, John check your email


I don't know John - I think we ought to keep these very fine,
expensive devices to ourselves - exclusivity and all that.


All I have to say is be careful, be very very careful next time you
start your car.

I'm positive I would not want to be associated with either you or Reggie.


By entering the chamber of enlightenment, you've already done so. Why would
you do that?

Notice, that since you're such a neat guy, no one complained about your
name-calling.
