Not totally laid up, yet. But I'll be 87 very shortly, and the yard work 
I was doing for about 3 hrs earlier will still be yelling at me 
tomorrow. Getting old is not for the faint hearted, specially when your 
ticker is running on a battery and already has rebuilt valves just to 
keep it pumping at 30%. For me, thats good, and sure beats the 
alternative.

Besides, he is not ready for me yet, I'm too much of a maverik. ;o)

Gabriel would send me down, I'd fix the stoker, install electricity and 
airconditioning, start a brewery and open a bar...

Cheers, Gene Heskett
