Excellent idea.<BR/><BR/>Beth and Zeb - glad you've found a saying you both like and use, what exactly does it mean though? isn't everything always just what it is? <BR/><BR/>Jerrta - Welcome back! I did know Paloma had a fabulous birthday - I remember thinking that when I got the birth announcement. She'll live a long and interesting life filled with rainbows.
