Howdy! Trust things are going okay for you? I hope so...today was beautiful. My brother and I went out for lunch, and then shopped at little antique stores in downtown.

Whoa....breaking news here in Tampa, M Kehoe!...a tanker truck has overturned and exploded!!!! This is in downtown Tampa right underneath an overpass. Near Veterans and Memorial, Kehoe. Check out Baynews 9. Interesting.

Ok, just back from Lord of the Rings.

The movie gets the Chairman's Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. 3 1/2 stars (out of four). A little ragged on the ending (but the book - The Fellowship of the Ring - was too), but it will get you back for the next piece of the trilogy (The Two Towers).

Lot's of adventure - a few parts may be a bit intense for small kiddies (my ten-year-old said it "was very scary") - and the acting was quite good. Was very faithful to the book.

Would recommend.

Tampa, I do a lot of work for some retirement centers in that area, in fact, throughout all of Fl. The last time I was in Tampa was in the 60s, my wife and I took us a trip down your way.
