Haven't hit my stride yet, so I've been wrestling with all the downsides this past month, including the "lonelies". And the latter is partly due to a breakup with someone who is from Texas, so I feel for you, bro'. ;-) Keep up the good work - I'll have to start checking in regularly. Pete Richard -
