Great comp on this, Mel -- I love seeing his abode in the bg! Is it warmer in Kansas than in Michigan? If so, I'll hop on his back and tag along! (Tuesday actually turned out to be not quite as bad as I feared -- it could have blown up in my face, but we managed to avoid major disaster. Thanks for asking!) #5600315
