Dear jobe3X,
Boy, have you somehow gotten the wrong impression. Happy? Well, no - I'm not "constantly happy" (they have places for people like that). But I AM very content - with occasional flashes of pure joy. I have no regrets about anything in my past and I have no fears about my future. What I don't understand is how you seem to have picked up the idea that I'm dissatisfied with my present situation - I'm not, at all. I love where I am and what I'm doing. I only wish everyone were as fortunate.
Regards,
John
P.S. Regarding the original topic, follow this link to a comic (?) comment:

Dear biffinbridge,
Well, probably not - glory shared is glory halved, you see. But never let it be said that we don't know how to reward our faithful allies. Tell Tony he can expect a box of Mars bars in the mail.
Regards,
John |

| Do you think Tony Blair would hop the pond and come be President? Our prospects are looking pretty bleak. |
