Me thinks you guys are spending way to much time on your computers. You
should be out sailing and drinking and in general having a great time. Me? I'm
working on my honey do list today, but I might open the bar early.

MJM,
You want flowers? I just sprayed some in my front yard this morning, send
me your address and I'll FedEx you a dozen. My Bo list penalizes listers
with donations to the Margarita fund at the Oshkosh fly-in. If I had to
apologize to everyone I ever offended I'd never have time to fly or sail,
that said -
Please accept my apology to those of you who feel they have been a
"target". That includes you Al Gore for me suggesting you're a charlatan
and you Chocolate Baby Jesus for suggesting you don't have a single
significant accomplishment under your belt.
