ooo! oooo!!! **How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days** Just silly, honestly. Rita Rudner said it best. “You want to get rid of a man? It’s easy. Look deeply into his eyes, and say ‘I love you. I want to marry you. I want to have your children.’ Sometimes they’re gone so fast they leave skid marks.” 😃 ---

You really, really like me!”) **Pat Hingle** (who, it may interest you to know in this week that Tony Randall died, appeared in _The Odd Couple_ on Broadway in the mid-1960’s. My grandparents lived in New York at the time, and treated my parents to tickets to the play when my family paid a visit during the summer. Mom and Dad still have stubs for the tickets, which were priced at a then-princely $6 each.) ---

Okay, I’ll be gone for the next few days (senior trip - just graduated tonight, woo), so you guys’ll have to hold down the fort. It better still be going when I get back. You have been warned. ---
