I haven't tried it yet, but I am sure your method will work. Thus, I will adopt you and bring you to Saskatchewan (where it is blizzarding right now, I might add), and you can be my personal assistant, doing things like cleaning cds and such. However, since I had originally asked Hell to come and do the job, I'll have to reclassify her position. Hmmm, she *does* do something with that rugby team -- Hell, perhaps you would like to be my personal trainer? I have to warn you though that I am chubbier than ever this winter, and ever since I hit 30, I ache just looking at people doing exercise for fun, so it will be a tough job. I also am terrified of rugby too, so don't get any ideas. I had a friend who played it who used to put vaseline on his ears for some reason, which freaked me out, and the one time I went and watched, he broke some bones, so don't even think of getting me into that scary shit. Also, I am afraid that the two of you will have to share a room, and the pay is sort of.... nonexistent... and as I stated, my DJRD might be wrecked and Hejira has this mysterious scratch on it, so best to bring your Joni collections.... Oh, and the perpetually ill cat is trying to cough up fur balls or something lately (nothing has come up yet), so she may have to sleep with you two until she passes it, ok? Oh, and I expect y'all to start a curling team with me and my wife too... don't forget your brooms! p.s. -- stop at the duty free on your way in and get me some American smokes too.... Oh... and don't worry -- you only have to call me Sir during working hours :) Of course, y'all can get here and tell me to kiss your asses and plop down on my couch and crank some Joni, and that would be fine too (I couldn't be a Mr. Burns if I tried!) Evian And Jimmy, you cracked me up with your 525, 600 times post -- let's open up a restaurant in Santa Fe, my friend!
