I never know how much money to send ( it usually changes yearly )
until I get the January issue and wade through the November minutes
to find out how much the thing cost. I wish I were a member of the
'in group' and could prepay and have it come 'automatically' .

I thought we were beyond all that! I was informed that all the
'junk dealers' had died off or were too old and wobbly to smear
pollen.

Many times one can tell the junk dealers by the names they use for
their 'babies.' No caring person would give such horrible names to
their children if they thought their children were worthy.
