I'd just like to apologize for my belated responses to everyone's
messages. Due to weather conditions here in the mountains of Utah, I did
not recieve most of the mail for the last 36 hours until today. It also
prevented me from making the following fact known...

   My birthday was yesterday. (Oct. 24) I am now 20 years old. Yes, old
enough to smoke, die for my country and decide what idiot gets the
whole damn country on a silver platter. But, because it's Utah, not old
enough to gamble or drink. Ah well, I just wanted to let youse guys
know. Feel free to delete this.
