Ray, This must have been around the time their silverware was disapearing as I remember the news articles of the missing forks and spoons quite well.
Just kidding Ray, I think its time to pack and head out....Just spending the nite and getting tests done...nothing major that I know of...but costly none the less...fist time i've seen a doctor in 20 years...I think I'm due for my checkup...at least I'm pretty sure you supposed to get a thourough checkup every 20 years...
Good night all, If I don't make it, someone bring a ouiji board to the next C4 convention and I'll try to contact you...
