    Only if asked. I was never in a combat situation even though I was in for the last 5 years of Vietnam.

    That was the "Hell no I won't go" war? Thank you for your reply Ele and Happy Wednesday. I take it by a prior post of yours that you're in contact with Merlin. If so please tell her hello from me and that I hope she is doing better. Thanks! :)

    I will. She and her husband are OK and no damage their home other than smoke and soot.

    Are you a pal or what? Finding a place to fit what I thought goes above and beyond the job description of pal pal! Just so's ya know I appreciate it. Jim is always making excuses for my "lacks". Always. Thanks and I want to guarantee to you that next year will be different but how can I? I might be different too! AARRGGH!
