Thank you, Chris, for waking up and fixing that. What I hope all tyrannical weasels think when my feet hit the floor in the morning: "Dam*it, she's up." :-) Oh, and I discovered a new term someone in politics shared with me this week when I asked his opinion on something. Instead of answering the question, he responded: "No thanks. I have no interest in being Just Jenny'd." I'm going to need an ego punch soon. Being a campaign manager, no doubt one is just around the corner. Ray not having a title emphasizes the fact that he isn’t a career politician.
