 -=> Quoting ...... Awww! Never mind!!!!!!

 ...Humm......... <ggggggggg>  (I'm joking Ann! I promise I won't do it
 again!!! )

 Howdy Misse'z Denva'!!!

 Sounds like Old Macdonald had a farm.... hummmm...<ggg>

 Well sometimes I have a white hair in my mustache, but when I pull it
 out, it doesn't come back.  Probably because of the way I look at it
 (my mustache) in the mirror "If you come back, I'll KILL you!!!" <ggg>

 KK> Funny of you to say that.   Some people at work thought I was 25

 KK> the truth!

 I guess it happens with some people.  For instance, my sister is 40
 years old and doesn't look a day over 28-30.  Some people told me that
 I didn't look more than 27-28.  I also know a very nice lady... a
 special friend (Hi Tiger! <ggg>), who is 38 and who doesn't look more
 than 28.... She doesn't have even one wrinkle in her face!

 KK> when I look in the mirror, knowing full well what I looked like
 KK> at age 25. ;-)

 Probably didn't look quite different, huh?  Some people don't change
 at all in 20 years of their lifetime!!!

 KK> How is that coming along?

 (Speaking of job search).  It's still calm.  Nobody called back and
 I'm waiting.  The economy seems to be recovering!!!   For now, I'm
 taking it easy.  I've been out of work only since two months.

 Oops!  That must be pretty hard to do with people... Because they
 aren't computers and have a heart and feelings, it touches our *human*
 side much more.

 KK> Me, in journalism?  Based on what?!?  (grin)

 SHSSS, day one... SHSSS, day two... SHSSS, day three... Should I say
 more? <gggggg>

 KK> You hope to read me again...hope the big bombardment of messages

 <Clint Eastwood mode ON>

 This is a BLUE WAVE editor. It can blow you clean off your Silver
 Express.  Now I have one more message in here... You want me tu use
 it?

 Go ahead! Make my day!

 <Clint Eastwood mode OFF>

 KK> Blue Wave allows me to open, read and reply to a series of
 KK> packets all in one sitting without exiting the program, making it
 KK> easier and quicker for me.

 Hurray for BW!!!! You can even enter Netmails straight in the editor
 and Upload them!  And you even have WORKING filters!!! Wow wow wow!!!!
 <gggg>

 KK> At this writing (Nov. 23), we have a blizzard here in Denver!  I
 KK> got off work at 2 p.m. and did not enter my home until nearly 4
 KK> p.m.  The winds were bitter with a chill factor of 10 below zero
 KK> and the snow was drifting all over the place.  I walked 8 blocks
 KK> from the bus to my door.  Brrrr!

 And we are now november 28th and don't have one single centimeter of
 snow!!! Not even a millimeter!!!  The temperature is in the 30's.
 Mid 30's.  How much snow did you get with your blizzard?

 KK> Auf wiedersehen,

 Okey dokey!

 Amicalement,

 Hugues
