Frank,

You are a fine Freeper, indeed!

Congrats, dude, on the well-deserved honor!

(Unfortunately, they apparently got some photos mixed up at Freeper GHQ. I didn't even know Ernest Hemmingway's grandson WAS a Freeper!)

Thanks for your post, Dick - I'm sure Taxman will see it, but flagging him in case he missed it. :)

Thanks, Dick. I appreciate the kind words.

LOL! If I took my "No IRS" ballcap off, ditched the Mock Hippie "WAR" necklace, and quit talking about taxes, no one would recognize me!

But I'm not going to hide behind the new beard, take off my "No IRS" ballcap, ditch the Mock Hippie "WAR" necklace or quit talking about taxes! The beard is still a work in process -- I have no idea where it is going, but I'm gonna follow along just to see what happens! LOL!
