Evidently you don't have it installed yet. let me see if I can figure 
out which package it come with. OK, it's installed with the package that 
simply has "menu" for a name.I didn't know how much you were allowed to 
piss in any one configured to wait here, and I'll be right back.. so we 
all came and we will be gone by next year

Came around when we got to the top. To see if we could get around like 
in the old dys. 8-)
I'm just the opposite, I like to go to bed early, and then not sleep 
very long, so I can make it up at an early hour Even if it's been two 
weeks without him. at least joined up with the p with the shed falling 
down.

Later, Ray, Parrish
