So much for support from my VP… And I can only respond in the time honoured way: have not! have not! have not! But I have to admit I am weakening. Especially in the face of the seemign betrayal from wyldelf… ---

_chuckles_ Not yet. She would have only finished work an hour ago and she hasn’t made an appearance here yet… Maybe if I walked around with my eyes closed… well then I’d probably just fall down the stairs. ---

Now, now, boys. Plenty of Nym to go around. No shoving! 😃 and \ **Scratchie,** I seem to remember you saying those exact same words a few weeks ago to me and Rasa. Minus the “Nym” and adding in “Scratchie” of course. **Rasa,** as a sorta hijack, I have a friend that put out an album called, “Brian McClelland’s Big Distorted Head.” Your, “she might scare you away with her Big Giant Head™!” gave me a HUGE laugh. Now, shouldn’t we get back to convincing dpr? I mean REALLY! This thread isn’t about ME! ---

Nym…If I **ever** walk into a thread that you post to that doesn’t become a thread all about you. I will be absolutely shocked. ---
