Thanks Bull... Patrol, not a word out of you. :) Now everyone is happy...back to Boom 2000. ...speaking of gasoline prices, how about the idea of selling car insurance at the pump. Included in the price of a gallon of gas would be insurance coverage. That would mean the people who drive the most, and therefore present the most risk of loss, would pay the most. Also it would solve thr problem of paying for insurance on three cars but only being able to drive one at a time. People with poor driving records could be assessed a surcharge each year. No more insurance agents needed. (Actually, the day of insurance agents are numbered, just like travel agents. The internet provides market transparency and efficient pricing...bye bye middle man.) big (the ultimate middle man)

Hi Big Bull! I appreciated all of your input over the weekend. You and I share similar philosophical beliefs. For the most part, the discussions were handled with maturity and respect. Thanks all! I enjoyed it. Bull, I wasn't offended by Patrol's verbal assault on me. I wear it as a badge of courage, their way of showing recognition. I would have been worried if I hadn't been the recipient of the Postal assault. I would have thought there was something wrong with me. They made me feel like I was back in the neighborhood. I was right at home. Thanks for your concerns. Another Joisey guy with class. Who'da thunk it? No apologies necessary from da Post, after all, I call myself a bum. <g> dabum
