That's nothing at all Dotan. I have been so late, so many times in my 75
years, that my 2nd wife used to claim that I would probably be late for my
own funeral. And I always replied that I sincerely hoped I missed it
completely. But guess who had the car warmed up by the time she was ready?
Thank $Diety she left 25 years ago. I've not been quite so tardy sometimes.
