Morning Jan! I hope you are peacefully snoozing away in some merry dreamland this sleepy Sunday morning. I'm going to have to have another serious chat with our Maker regarding that idiot nerve. Doesn't sound like we have you back yet exactly the way we had in mind. I sent you the following via email but I'm not sure you've read it yet (many SIers have probably seen this as it was first posted on the Market Gems thread..) Wouldn't want TLC or Lost1 to miss something like THIS

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT THE NEXT TIME YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DAY

Fire Authorities in California found a corpse in a burnt out section of
forest while assessing the damage done by a forest fire. The deceased
male was dressed in a full wet suit, complete with a dive tank, flippers,
and
facemask. A post-mortem examination revealed that the person died not from
burns
but from massive internal injuries. Dental records provided a positive
identification. Investigators then set about determining how a fully clad
diver ended up in the middle of a forest fire.

It was revealed that, on the day of the fire, the person went for a diving
trip off the coast-some 20 miles away from the forest. The firefighters,
seeking to control the fire as quickly as possible, called in a fleet of
helicopters with very large buckets. The buckets
were dropped into the ocean for rapid filling, then flown to the forest
fire and emptied. You guessed it. One minute our diver was making like
Flipper in the Pacific, the next he was doing a breaststroke in a fire
bucket 300 feet in the air. Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of
bed.

sooooooooooooooooooo...
looks like another beeoootiful day in south Florida - wish you could go to the beach! soon, soon. Feel better, Jannie.
