   Eh....I think I missed something, like one or four replies...No honest 
I read all the replies in my in box...The first thing I have seems to be 
a multi part discourse on the style of formal wear in Texas:

   In Dallas:
      A big sodding cowboy hat, a shiny pair of ropers [spit polished], 
freshly pressed midnight-blue-just-bought-'em-they'll-turn-all-my-wash- 
blue-tomarrow jeans, and a "western" style shirt [over priced extra ugly 
button down variety] and a chrome plated XL pickup truck [four rear 
wheels for the added traction on those treaturous Dallas streets].
   In Commerce:
      Flannel shirt with the slieves ripped out, unbuttoned mid way. [no 
under shirt]  Dusty-crusty-haven't-washed-'em-yet-this-decade-blue[in 
theory] jeans.  A pair of shit kickers, I mean dirty cowboy boots.  
Permanant sun burn on face, neck and arms.  Great big pickup truck[four 
wheels on back optional] covered in mud, with remnants of hay, wire, a 
tool kit and ten to fifteen empty beer cans in the bed.

The second thing seems to be a discoussion of the return of a .sig 
character and the havoc he[she/it] is likely to cause to the ML if 
he[she/it] is not accepted and is left around in this thread as spam... 
No wait a minute thats not right....oh well....what was the original 
reply[s]?
   What?  You threw it away?  Hey, I bet thats the randomly bouncing 
message...

                 to catch that pigeon, er, E-mail...
