I was with someone one time who ordered it "well-done" and I nearly fainted.

You'd be fainting around me all the time then.

1) My step dad was a butcher.
2) I remember biology class.

Jerry must be sitting at his PC right now, because this is the email I got a couple of minutes ago, in response to the one I just sent him.



RICHARD, I THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. I HAVE PASSED ON ALL THE
KNIFES THAT YOU HAVE SENT TO ME AS I CARRY A LEATHERMAN ON MY BELT THAT
TAKES CARE OF MY NEEDS. I SERVED IN VIETNAM AS A RANGER WHERE I CARRIED A
CAMILLUS K-BAR STYLE KNIFE THAT I STILL HAVE AT HOME. IT HAS SERVED ME WELL
FOR MOST OF MY LIFE AND TO OWN ANOTHER WOULD BE WONDERFUL. IT IS MY
PLEASURE TO SERVE HERE IN DJIBOUTI AND DO MY PART.

AS TO WHAT WE COULD USE, WELL ANYTHING YOU HAVE THAT YOU CAN SPARE TO SEND
HERE WOULD BE APPRECIATED AND WELL RECEIVED. AS YOU DIRECTED ME EARLY ON I
HAVE TAKEN IT UPON MYSELF TO FIND SOME DESERVING TROOPS WHO COULD USE AND
APPRECIATE THESE KNIVES. SO FAR I HAVE DONE SO AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO AS
LONG AS THE SUPPLY CONTINUES. TO YOU AND ALL YOUR COHORTS THANK YOU FROM
DJIBOUTI.

JERRY
