I love my new  air conditioner. The crew arrived about noon and left around 12:45. I am very pleased.

Good news DR ELMORE.

Agreed!

I am going to do something tomorrow that I have never done in my life......similar to something I did in the last century - but certainly not since then....and specifically not at all.

I shall have a full report at the conclusion.

Ooo...intriguing!

I've got a really scratchy throat, which I am hoping against hope is not a prelude to something worse.

Be careful, Jack.  Your flexibility isn't what it was last century whether you actually ever did what it is you are going to do tomorrow or not!

(And I hope it isn't prescient that I have re-read your last word three times as "contusion" rather than conclusion).

My favorite line from "The Competition" is Lee Remick's:

Andrew! It costs extra to carve "schmuck" on a tombstone, but you would definitely be worth the expense!
