| Way to go Winslow! Better stock up on OFF. Course if you start smoking Walnut you wouldnt need it. _________________ "...So it shall be for all time.

| Congratulations Steve. That is a beautiful place. Interestingly enough when you used the phrase "Happily Ever After" it was de ja vu "all over again" as Yogi would say as that is the name that my wife gave our property here in East Tennessee. She made a sign that is posted at the entrance that reads" Welcome to Happily EverAfter". It certainly is for us. Best wishes for a well deserved and blessed retirement. |

| I'm very happy for you. Pherhaps I can visit your ranch some day when work slows down. We can sip ice tea and smoke tobacco. I have 16 years until I retire; I don't even see the end. But with the new addition to my family, I would want to work until I knew he could go off on his own. _________________ You can't sell short. You can't buy tall. And, you can't teach cool.

| Congratulations on your upcoming retirement! My next door neighbor gave me some good advice before I retired but I thought he was joking. He told me to get everything done that needed to be done before I retired because there wouldn't be enough time to get it done afterwards. I'll pass it along to you so you can tell others..."I told you so!" Jim _________________ Life is like a bath..the longer you stay in the more wrinkled you get.

| Congratulations Winslow. I trust that you will find Dixie as welcoming and rewarding a place to call home as you could imagine. Your place looks somewhat similar to my own environment, I pray you find as much peace there as I find here! _________________ I'm a jaded old Iso-Con, get over it!
