<A bug? What kind of bug could be construed as sexual? >

The Love bug....

...plus I said something to the effect of being down with a bug..on this thread there is enough sick humor (myself included) I wanted to beat everyone to the punch.

Speaking of Love Bugs...remember the Disney show "Herbie the Love Bug?" SNL or J. Carson did a thing on "Herpies the Love Bug."

I don't think I've got a flu bug..not that nasty..just something keeping the old bones/muscles sore, headachie, etc.

Thanks for the well-wishing.

I think I mentioned it before..just in case...I've thanked God many times I have never been in such a desperate situation where I had to make a decision of that nature. I did ask my child bride the other night a two-part question.

1. If you were faced with giving up your life so one of our sons could live...what would be your choice?

2. If you were faced with giving up your life so your unborn child could live...what would you do?

It made me think, too. Although I can't give birth..there could be a time I could give up a vital organ to save my own. We THINK we know what we would do in either case...but then again..the pressure is not on. I don't think either side of the issue can give a flippant response...this is something we are not capable of fully understanding as mere human beings.

Tonight, on "The Newshour with Jim Lehrer" shown on PBS, they did a segment on companies associated with computer graphics who produce special effects for the movie industry. Three companies were mentioned during the segment: Mega Drive, Digital Domain, PLF (not the ticker symbol). Has anyone heard of these companies and if so what are the symbols should one or all turn out to be publicly traded? They mentioned that Mega Drive had doubled its sales in the last two years.

If somebody knows something, please give me a shout.
