A close one

[Craig Goldstein]

Holy cow Julie....You need to mount a set of air horns and scare the sh*t
out of those jerk wads.  Thank god your OK!

Now....as for the bank, are you referring to the price of gas?  As for the
cure guy at the cate station.  I'll pretend I didnt hear that and I'm still
your favorite.
