Thank-you for the kind words Uncle Bob; I don't mean to confuse anybody with colloquialisms . . . the way I speak is the way I write . . . virtually verbatim.
And we don't talk funny . . . the rest of the world does!

(And I hear you on working for nothing; I worked for myself for nearly forty-eight years and never had a pay-day!)
