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...
