You have two? ***. Brain doesn't even reply to my "***" pages now.

(A look behind the scenes... I was going to reply "Well... I pay Tami to
post replies to you in my name. Sorry." but I accidentally insulted Charles
today so I didn't go that route. All the people I'm willing to accidentally
insult are gone:)

What do you mean by that crack "one way or another"? Hey... did you ever
see my famous "breasts" reply?

OUCH.. Tubes are delicate things... What about using a ratchet strap on the
spring?

Oh yea... I just remembered all those years you lied to me about how fast
you are. These are decisions that I think really really good riders make
one way and I make another. I'd go with your judgment on this:)

Call me envious of your riding family... we go out to dinner. BUT.. my wife
