2 Problems
Oh, we remember your electric wench, Al! G
Diana "Al" wrote in message ... dam, your good. ;-) Ask me about my electric wench some time. You don't get a.b.p.o do you? However, it's definitely a loop I was speaking of. I made it myself with some clear cellophane stretched over one end of an old bubble blowing wand left over from one of my recent childhoods. I couldn't find the loupe that I was required to buy for my pest management class so I had to improvise. This reminds me of my favorite exchange from one of Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe novels. In it Wolfe had maneuvered one of his suspects into the red chair and was making him nuts with his erudite pedantic style of interrogatory interlocution until the man simply could not take it any more. He said, "I came here to find out what you've done with my wife, not to have my grammar corrected!" To which Wolfe dryly replied, "I'm not correcting your grammar. I'm correcting your diction." ....I guess you had to be there. Anyway, you may correct either of mine any time you like and I'll try to be more careful. It's just reassuring to know somebody actually reads this cwap 'o mine that closely, sense most of it is so obliviously devoid of common cents.

That should be a "loupe." 10X would be best. Obligatory songs: "Here We go Loop-de-Loop." "Little Latin Lupe Lu." J. Del Col |
