And to think.  In a moment of insanity, I passed on this one and sent it
to the list....   Oh well,

(I mentioned it to my wife last night and I couldn't believe her
response.  "Why did you do that?")

        I'm kind of hoping I'm not the only one that does this sort of
thing.

        This is VERY VERY true.

        Now hold it here, I never once said I was responsible, mature
person.  I'm a 
        boy in a mans body!

        As circumstances may be I don't have this particular worry.
Being single 
        has advantages and disadvantages.  In this instance it happens
to be an 
        advantage!

        After I got divorced in 1988 after a really BAD marriage my dad
told me I 
        should try and do the things I wanted to do.  So I'm just trying
to live up to 
        his advice <G>.

        I must admit that storage could become a problem but I think I
can 
        overcome that problem.  At least I hope so.  At $300 I couldn't
see how I 
        could pass up on this.  If its not restorable at least the parts
should be 
        worth the price tag.  

        I appreciate your morning humor.  Kind of helps put perspective
on things!!

        Have a nice day.
