[QUOTE=zagloba] Congratulations, David! Is your bride from Iowa, too? [/QUOTE] Thanks to all for the best wishes. Yes, she was born and raised on a farm (where else?) and was a [soda jerk](http://www.answers.com/topic/soda-jerk) at a drug store across the street from the theater where I was the projectionist. Her cooking is edible and will sustain life. Actually, she’s a good cook. ---
