Exclusively with the girls (grin)!

A clear sign that you are not a luddite...they seldome have a zero balance on 
ANY plastic!

We got cable when it first became available in our area...we live in the flight

path for the runways at the local Air Force Base (McChord AFB) which is 
about 2 miles away...the radar, and radio interference made TV reception on 
an antenna practically unviewable.  Cable was a godsend for us! As for the 
Seattle/Cowboy game...I'm truely amazed that the 'Hawks managed to dodge 
the bullet...Right now the MVP for the Seattle team is the Dallas Quarterback!
Anne and I make a particular effort to avoid Seattle altogether when the 
Seahawk's are playing at home...It's just not worth the frustration!
chat with you soon
