Dear Martha,

challenged?  Oh....you mean like the long exciting desert drive
maybe???

The decor of my van?  Sheesh, I thought since everyone new what
they looked like stock.  Cooking?  We made fajita's one night. ;)
Potatoes O'Brien (O'Brian?) one morning.  Ate out alot.  Ummmmm
Yea, cooking...yea isn't that where you put something in a pan
and heat it? ;)  Well, maybe next time I'll do better.

Shopping? I bought a real cool McCall Microbrewery shirt.  Oh Yeah
and another shirt in bend with a real cool picture of a snake 
wrapped around a hikers leg that says "Take A Walk On The Wild
Side".  Oops!  More testosteroni spillage there...;)  Linda picked
up some nice ones too, but a little more tilted toward the well-
X chomozone endowed. :). 

Sewing hmmmm.... that's a tough one.  I'll get back to you on that.

Well Martha, me thinkest that you are spending way too much
time with your theasaurus and should get into your beasties
engine compartment and really find out where it's at!  ;) ;) ;)
