Shawnee123 Why, you're a regular Alfred E Einstein, ain't ya? Join Date: Jun 2006 Posts: 21,206	I like the idea of calling afternoon snacks "tea." It takes the guilt out. "What are you doing there?" "I'm having tea" I reply with pinky extended and surrounded by Doritos and Pop Tarts and Ho-Hos. __________________ A word to the wise ain't necessary - it's the stupid ones who need the advice. --Bill Cosby
