One of my good sailing buddies sent me a beautiful birthday card and congratulated me for turning 16. He sez 7 plus 9 equals 16. And sailors never lie. Now I am trying very hard to be strong. Only got out sailing once in January, and only once in February, but more days coming. And Rejoyce! waits very patiently. "Over the Hill" and "out of warranty" at 70? Check Psalms 90.10, be strong and make it to 80! John R. Butler theoldcat@cox.net
