Henry >>Did they get that from the same folks who came up with two months salary for an engagement ring :)<< OK.. you hit on one of my pet peeve companies!-g- Good ole De(who waters down the workers) Beers -g- I can't help hating those guys.-g- Probably cause I'm in awe of how they have brain washed the average American.. course that aint too hard to do.-g- Two months salary.. my ass!-g- And if you spend less... why you just don't love her enough!

Partly I guess cause it reminds me how gulible my fellow Americans are.-g- sorry for the divergence-g- Mark
