What else do you expect from an American.
To quote Adlai Stevenson,"It's not enough to have every intelligent person in the country voting for me. I need a majority".

Hi again EM
It wasn't a quote, but a recurring idea in his writing,(eg. Welcome to the monkey house) - and now, even worse, having been forgotten by the rest of the universe the lunatics have taken over the Asylum,.
(Thatcher, Reagan,etc. G.W.Bush seemed to confirm his thoughts to him before he died).
I hope we are not elite tho.
PS.If I was J from A, I would reply with a four letter word now.

From what I have read, the only 4 letter word J from A knows is WINE (or perhaps BEER). He is obviously too clean living to be thinking like you!!

Mamya,
I've just found the knitting pattern my mother taught me when I was a boy. It was a simple repetition of "Knit one, purl one, drop one, make one". By following that pattern I always ended up with the same number of stitches that I started with!

Sorry Guys, I had turn off my computer early last night as I've been on the mainland all day today and I've only just seen this. I have to admit that I'm more of a wine man but the occasional

you always cheer me up.
