(Smiling) Atta girl, Ems. That is funny, but I agree completely. That is what LIFE is all about: BE TOO MUCH! No moderation here. Moderation is for monks. Have a winning day!

Here's a true story (that happened to me back in Saint Olaf.) When I first moved to FL I needed a place to put my stuff. I left NH with whatever I could squeeze into my Honda Accord.
