Beckles,

I think Pucci was trying out the Continental spelling of your name. She seems to enjoy playing with bons mots, but she should be careful of the Language Police (they usually play tag team with the Laugh Police). Also, from personal experience, if you have to ask if something is the result of your being too intellectually challenged, the answer is usually yes.

Pucci, I forgot to address some of the comments in your last bold post. No problem using Tu with me. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy United - it can be hit or miss. I used to be a Pan Am flyer; it was very sad at the end, except for the last few flights on which the FAs nearly forced you to take wine and champagne with you as you disembarked. Very curious about the long thread you mentioned. I may have to scratch around and see what I can find.

JH is beginning to fray around the edges, though he still seems able to attract more than his share of pretty young things. Must be his voice. DH is much easier to look at.

Bisous back.
