Dear Pat:

ME TOO. :-) VBG

My favorite words are from "I Wish I Were in  Love Again"; Rodgers & Hart

When love congeals
it soon reveals 
the faint aroma of performing seals
the double-crossing of a pair of heels.
I wish I were in love again!

How on earth did that get past the PC censors when it was written? ;-) VBG

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
