The beer cans rolling out from under the seat when I stopped too abruptly didn't help, either (it was my uncle's car.)<BR/><BR/>I loved the Anthony <I>Incarnations</I> series, too!<BR/><BR/>Oh - and I'm acid.Carl Bryanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528744359857732425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14315467.post-1149696488200537102006-06-07T18:08:00.000+02:002006-06-07T18:08:00.000+02:00Arlene, your 30:30 project sounds very interesting...Arlene, your 30:30 project sounds very interesting.
