Hey Mike, My apologizes! My apologizes!
What?s even worse is I intended to reply off list (uggh, that didn?t happen!) so I feel doubly stupid. Glad the holidays are coming up. Looks like I?m way overdue for some time off! Ward :) From: Mike Watkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: <macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu> Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2004 10:22:46 -0500 To: <macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu> Subject: Re: MacGroup: Hard drive for backup... Ward, Not true! I bought the LaCie 250GB Firewire HD from MacTown. I asked for you that day and was told you were "on-site" somewhere. I tried to buy printer ink there last time, too, but you-all didn't have my type in stock. (I use Epson T008201 color and T007201 black.) See, I am more loyal than you realize! Thanks for the Thanksgiving wishes... I plan to have dinner with some friends whom I love dearly. So I know I'll be well fed and well entertained. I wish the same for everyone.
