FUNNY! Thanks, Smile. Except I have to agree with...ah heck...Fran Libowitz...she says we've got it wrong. The only ladies are in English court somewhere.

Okay JJ. That settles it. You're my long lost sister or something. My Daddy said "Even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while" all my life. Yep, I'm sure of it. You and I are kinfolks for sure.

Oh my lord is this family ever in trouble now.
