Your tire must really have been flat-tered! lol. Congrats on a great win, Paula, with a really humorous anecdote-- all in just 17 syllables. Way to go! ~ Gershon

Too true, it never rains but it pours. When our daughter was teaching in Thailand one of the Thai teachers said "It's not true that Thais don't make plans. We do but sometimes things change."
