[PRCo] Re: Congrats to One of Our Members

[John Swindler]

Six months, four days, three hours and 46 minutes, BUT WHO'S COUNTING     
(:>)

But seriously, life has this strange habit of never quite working out the 
way I thought it would.  Maybe just as well, as things also seem to have a 
habit of working out better then I would have thought.  There is much to be 
thankful about.

And thank you, Fred, for the kind comments.

Have a happy - and safe holiday

John

p.s.  Correction:  make that 41 minutes  <g>
