I think that's the best idea yet. Two lists. If you can't laugh and have a
little fun out of all this then leave the dull part to those only
interested in that portion and as long as you enjoy hearing from all of us
I'll keep in touch. I find this bunch to be pretty special in many ways I
don't have a large enough area to grow pumpkins but tried to add a little
humor to something I feel very close to. I have to take my hat of to Zoo
Doo I think what he's doing and the way he's going at it to be an
exceptional effort.
