Hi Gershon, I found this one-liner to be good and funny at the same time. Congratulations on your 2nd place win. It was well deserved:-) Alexis

Thank you Alexis! Maybe we can make it into a candy mantra: Good-and-Funny, Good-and-Funny, Good-and-Funny... (Remember Good-and-Plenty?! Do they even make that stuff anymore? --Probably not). ~ Gershon

I'm scrounging around for a yard big enough to hold everything... So first, I have to find a yard for sale... :)

Can I quote you on this, Paul? Most people think I'm about as funny as a lifelong undertaker. Thanks! :)

Very sweet, and I am sure your children will appreciate it. Ha! We always joke about how big the bon fire will be here after we are gone.
