Zippy,
    NO, trust me, I was only kidding!  I understand your making us aware
of this, but honestly, I feel sort of guilty leaving everybody here with
the impression that the boys upstairs are bad neighbors!
     Hey, just the other day a buddy and I got hernias dragging an old
TV set out to the front porch, and while we were sitting there huffing
and puffing wondering whether we would ever gain enough strength back to
pop another pop top on a fresh beer, the boys upstairs came out, picked
up the tv like it was a bag of feathers, carried it down the steps and
out to the curb for the garbage people! (Hey, I don't know that there
arn't women picking up the trash in Bellevue!)
     The boys upstairs really are ok, ya know?
(Then again, maybe I'm posting this because I'm afraid they have real
good ears and heard my synthesizer talking about them!)
                                                        Willie
