I actually have a job

I should hope so! Somebody has to keep S.S. solvent so greedy old geezers like me can keep on FReepin'.

On a series note, did you once tell me that you were of Huguenot descent? Or am I getting my oranges mixed up? My great (several greats) grand pappy fled France for England soon after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes and thank goodness he did or I'd be speaking French right now. He came to Virginia to a land grant in or around 1690.
