Thanks Wolram. I needed a place to put this and you have provided it.

I and the family went to Maine this long Thanksgiving weekend. We were greeted by Turbo-1 when we got there. We only saw the coastal area which is spectacular. The beaches are fine to look at and probably are good for swimming in the summer. I recommend the town of York in particular, but there are other beaches as well. The weather was surprisingly warm, but it rained all day Friday and all day today as we wended our way back home. We got as far north as Bar Harbor which is a kind of resort, but was closed for the season. It was something of a disappointment that we were unable to see Acadia National Park as it was closed for the season as well. The lobsters are sweet, delicious, and cheap. A good time was had by all.

i managed to give away my last two kittens today. seems no one wants the male ones (afraid of spraying), but i a guy with lots of land wanted them, and they'll be able to take shelter from the weather in his basement, so all is good.

I have been deemed fully disabled by Social Security, after years of not being able to earn a living. For someone that has worked full-time (as much as possible - summers and all vacations) from the age of 14, it has been crushing to have relied on my wife's income only, the last few years.

I would rather work, but if I can pull back some of the $$$$$ that I have paid over the decades to get a little income, that's good.

Something About Mary[/url] is a movie. But no, that's not the story. It's much more down to earth. I'm a collector. Some are collecting stamps, others are collecting money. I'm collecting thank-you's for some reason, so it's good news gettimg another one.

My cat can now eat something besides Friskies Shredded Beef. She had a bad food allergy but seems to be outgrowing it.

Yeah, I know, we could have done more, a lot more...didn't see much of the money, though, too many people on welfare!
