Hi Rick, and thanks for your support.  The "Hello Dolly" satire is a good
one.

My disappearing caregiver's "husband"is an "abstinence" speaker for Bush.
He (Luis) has a darling illegitimate daughter so I guess that qualifies him
(he's no teenager)on the subject.  I really really like Marisa, although she
has some mysterious ways besides being a Bush supporter, but I know what you
mean re your brother. Our political differences never got in our way either.

Yes, I sign every petition Diane sends me along with petitions from some
other folks on this List.  It's all I can do.

Ray
