I'll see what I can do Dennis, It might not be exactly what you want (I'm not sure I can mess with the banner things very well. I'll work on it when I get a chance between stuff for work. Too many other drawings to work on at the moment.

Wow!!- still getting around okay? That's great!! Do you have Luby's in Arizona? You can get free tea with your dinner if you order before 5pm and show your AARP card.

I fell in a hotel shower last Friday and bruised some ribs. I'm contemplating buying one of those life alert necklaces in case it happens again. Thank God I didn't break a hip.

Why would they cancel for your normal response of "Hey Sonny- Could you use a larger font like Arial Easytoread?"

For me, it isn't necessarily the size of the font...but what you do with it!

Oh dear I could use a breakfast slurpee.

In other news, I've been seeing Smart cars around town. They catch your eye to say the least!

Which brings me to another point--I will be seeing many more Smart cars next week when I'm in Paris! I'm asking everyone and their uncle for recommendations. We're really just winging it at this point! Thoughts are mucho appreciated!

The Fragonard Museum. It's the home to several plastinated corpses like the Body Worlds exhibit that toured the US last year. Not everyone's cup of tea but I found it very interesting.

I went to the one in Phoenix last year. I thought it was a great exhibit. It was really fascinating.
