Congratulations.

Just in case you haven’t already, you should email **TubaDiva** : [TubaDiva@aol.com](mailto:TubaDiva@aol.com) and let her know. They frown on folks having more than one username.

i emailed lynn–does that count for anything?

I remember when I was but a young lad, I was a ring-bearer in my aunt’s wedding. As a memento I recieved this really nifty 'puter mug – had the date etched on it and everything.
