For some reason, I thought that this sort of thing was regulated from state to state. I could very well be wrong, though. \*\* I’m pretty sure they can, although I don’t have a cite and I don’t use prescription drugs. I see sales on prescription drugs advertised, although it may just be “get 10% off” when you use your card, which is not necessarily a reduction in price on the drug, just a kickback type of a deal. ---

Why am I always getting dragged into these things? I personally love cookies. Especially chocolate chip. I also like a good sugar cookie once in a while. The only kind I really hate are the ones with peanut butter. Get one of those in your Christmas cookie tin and in no time the whole bunch tastes like peanut butter. Ticks me off. Now, what was that about Van Halen? ---

**Cecil** , I’m sure you’re a nice bloke and everything, but your posting pattern bothers me. You’ll be cracking three digits soon (so to speak), and that just won’t seem natural. We’ve gotten used to your lurker status. ---

I told you kids to hold it down. Now you’ve gone and woke up Uncle Cece. ---

That’s a check. \ Now, if I can just convince the FAA to let me skydive out of a C-130 transport in a 1971 VW Beetle, then I’ll be making some serious headway. ---
