Loses only occur when you sell. I have a lot of pretty certificates papering my garage walls. I'm no loser.

Y2K WARNING!!!!!!! READ THIS.

Before you get caught up in your worries about you computer failing I would like to alert you to an insidious attempt to bring down american commerce by Chinese Sabatures (People our congress has discovered are everywhere.)

I recently was called upon to write a check to a vendor for services which will be rendered in January. When I tried to write the date 20(* (damn keyboard) I found that my PILOT 'Precise V Fine' Rolling Ball pen went dry on me. I have a box of them and to my utter dismay I discovered that everyone of them went dry or broke as I tried to write the third zero of the year 20&*. The same thing happened with my box of BIC 'round stic medium's . I am now contacting the makers of the pens to enjure that they have all been Y2k updated.

I suggest you do the same. Don't be caught without a writing implement after the new year. Test all you pens for Y2k compliance!

P.S. I have found that crayons work ok. The big fat ones are the best. Though chalk crumbles in my hands.
