“I hope this'll make you laugh” Mrs S said as I picked up the next merrily wrapped parcel.

Hate to tell you, but if you're going to die at 75 (a pretty good average) you entered the middle section of your life at 25 As for understanding Skyhook.... that woman deserves a medal and an honorary degree from somewhere. I'm a threadkiller, twisted threadkiller |
