I didn't know that, my apologies. I use the excuse that all this keeps me 
out of the bars, where I'd get served beer about 2.1 times stronger than 
the Miller64 I try to keep in the fridge. Being diabetic, the alky is 
instant sugar and should be avoided. One, occasionally 2 of those is my 
limit. 2.8% stuff.

Chuckle, thats in a grandparents job description, spoil them, but you can 
leave. Unfortunately, I am in WV and I'd have to hit central Nebraska to 
spoil my great-great-grandchildren, if we could round them all up. The 
Missus would likely not survive that long with me gone, nor would she 
come along with any enjoyment.  COPD is s downhill slope until the end. 
But we've lasted 27 years & its been a pretty good 27 years so far. I 
think I'll keep her. :) And I'm pretty sure the grandkids and their git 
are already spoiled. I went out there and did the grand tour in 2007 
when my oldest daughter was dying, cancer, and they were sure spoilt 
then.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
