Well, only because I'd heard earlier in the day the chance of participation (pun intended) was >30pct. Later when the sun made an appearance, I got to wondering if it might be a "go". Didn't realize the website was that current. Actually I forgot about their website altogether. I'll bookmark it.

I was there last week, BTW.

Well, two reasons, John.

1. None of the "Usual Suspects" were there.

2. There was a crowd around the Aero Lightweight and I couldn't get out of answering questions. Things like, "What's up with that blob of dried wax on your fender? or, "You do realize, don't you, that Griots Speed Shine is not for tires?, and, "Why is your passenger seat full of old Ferrari magazines?"

Sorry, I'll try to be more discrete next time.

I live in the poorer part of Plateaupia. I am retired and partly disabled - okay, too lazy to clean the place up. I paid $89K for my house and drive the Biscayne of Corvettes. I do not employ a housekeeper, nor a landscaping firm to make my yard look nice. I can't even rent a goat, as it turns out. Unlike our neighbors within a circle of 1/4 miles, I do not have a golden retriever. I have a cat - one that had to be rescued at that. (And I know why, now)

At Halloween, no kids come to our door, but their parents stand at the end of our gravel and dirt driveway with pitchforks and torches. We did finally get street lights, but nobody wants to climb up and change the batteries.

The film crew from "COPS" has been out here twice in the last 6 weeks.

We had a neighborhood organization a couple of years ago, but it split up over the heated discussions over parking on lawns and not being allowed to burn old tires and use recycling bins to store deer meat.

On the positive side, we did beat out Detroit and Baghdad as the "Best Place to Raise Kids".

Even if I did give out my address, Google Maps will only show a warning like "You Really Don't Want to Go there, Do you?"

This is why I don't give out my address. I don't even give out my phone number since we're still on a party line and I don't want anyone to find out that most of the calls we get, besides yours, are collect and from various prisons. (Mary's family; most of mine are dead, or look that way)

I'm sure you'll understand.... I am so personally embarrassed. I was sure that Nuclear Engineering course I took at ITT Technical Institute would get me a better job, but.....

Maybe sometime soon. I'll save up and maybe lay in a stock of that Thunderbird wine you like so well. What was it you called it: "Schoolboy Scotch?"

We will of course come out to your estate if necessary.

Pray for me...

My cat is bigger than your dog. Fred's cat is bigger than Aaron's dog. They just don't chase tennis ***** or do much to protect the property.
