Also I felt you would get a kick out of the "Big" Cohonas remark;-)
I guess I'm just an old "Stick in The Mud"! But your point is well taken:)


To Sally Weltrop, don't take my kidding with your name seriously, it was a
"gross" way for me to make a point, and it wasn't meant to offend just in case!

If I have offended you there are many ways to poke fun at "McCracken"!!;o)
