I was just thinking about how lame many of these posts were, when it dawned on me that I haven't heard anything from JDK in a couple of months. Where is that smart S.O.B?

Owe you one anyway old bean. I was looking at bottles of 'Bluebird' by a certain lake last week. If we move any faster we'll meet ourselves coming back.

Yes, one of the reasons we went. One of the world's great museums, and not just because of the shrunken heads.
