I have lost it. Officially. Mark the day.

You don't get PM's either? Wow. I rarely get them. But then I don't have a lot of close friendships here either, although I'd like to have that.

The ATA needs the occasional silly post.

That's what my mom always said to me, so it must be good advice :-)

Seriously, however, while I think you're adorable (and I voted YES in the should-yvr-girl-flirt poll), I admit to being a tongue-tied geek with nothing particularly intelligent to say to you in a PM. You'll just have to trust me on this. When I think of something, I promise you'll be the first to know.

And I remember the time Tom Lehrer (a very funny topical songwriter of a previous generation) described the time he received a letter that said, "Darling, I love you and I cannot live without you. Marry me or I will kill myself!" And he was taken aback when he observed that it was addressed to "Occupant."

That's a good story. Thanks for the vote. I don't want to be tiresome.
