Quite frankly, I had no idea such existed, but have so far withstood the temptation to listen to more than the first few seconds. After all, the best of life is all about delayed gratification. I remain as always, gentlemen, your most humble -- indeed, obsequious -- faithful, obedient servant and unfeigned friend, etc., Bill I've been trying to educate my kids to this very concept Bill, "deferred gratification". Sacrifice now for a better tomorrow. So while we sit at the barbeque my son complains about the difficulty of getting a deposit together for his first house and the rank unfairness of it all these days I'm looking at his 20 grand (and counting) worth of tattoos, omega watch and 8 grand guitar. A Private school education doesn't make you smart that's for sure. Sorry, thread drift. You last line struck a chord. Phil Edited yesterday at 02:34 AM by Lucky Phil 2 1

Phil Did not intend for you to have to recall that, but as a father and grandfather, I assure you that I know EXACTLY what you mean. Sigh. Bill 1
