Lordy, you're like my wife, twisting my words around and using them against me ;^)
I never said "James F. Ryan III is jealous" or "James F. Ryan III is ___". I said "the majority of people" multiple times, to neither include nor exclude you!
Calm down, I was making a generalization, and it wasn't even a reply to your message. It was aimed at Mr. Woochtawn.
Take care,

Hooo doggy, you've got me pegged. Yes sir, hook, line, and sinker.
Bullseye, right between the eyes. The car I'm looking at is a 1986/7
325e (not i, but e). Yup, that's certainly newer, faster, and nicer
than my '91 SHO.
