Toaster winner think of what you want

I'm pleasantly shocked! I had no idea this honor would befall me today. I want to thank Jim Robinson for creating this forum, and rintense for creating this thread, Brad's Gramma for coming up with the Toaster Award, and you, for picking up the Banner of the Toaster Awards, to make this all possible. I also would like to thank Kathy and Peter for lending me a computer in 1997 to get me started on the Internet; Jeremy and Melissa, and Chris, people since then who have given me computers to keep this web effort going.

I'm stalling for time to figure out what kind of toaster I would like. ;-)

I would also like to thank my son, Mark, for giving me a computer. (I knew there was someone very important that I was leaving off that list!)
