Thank you Gentlemen, you to Al. Now isn't it traditional for everyone to buy the newly promoted officer a drink?

Actually sir, it is traditional to fly ensigns atop tall poles. Seein' that you live in the land of lynch mobs you might want to keep a low profile. hehehe....

BTW, I understand Texas will be observing 3 hours of silence this Saturday followed by a state wide week of whining and finger-pointing follwed by a lynching of the staff of a certain collegiate athletic team. [:D]

Where I live nothing would gladden our hearts more then to see UT take one in the chops. Around here it's "Guns Up", go Red Raiders.
