McDuck 0 #6 April 3, 2008 Congratulations! Hopefully the first thing you'll learn is to stop advertising. On another note, there's a chance I'll be in the Spokane area soon for a month on a project. I'll keep you informed.

ryoder 1,590 #11 April 3, 2008 One of my fondest memories of Geraldo Rivera was watching him eat a worm while participating in a SERE class for a TV report. SERE Instructor: "So how was it?" Geraldo, (with the worst imaginable grimace): "Delicious." "There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

McDuck 0 #12 April 3, 2008 Then it must have been a worm and not a banana slug. It's almost impossible to lie about that one.
