Jack: Neato! I got yer check for $98,000 but you forgot to include the $1500 for shiping and handling. By the way... I MAY have forgotten to tell you that our nifty Mexican yam junk also makes a very good depilatory and dandruff shampoo. Say lissen, Jack... we couldn't get anyone at our factory to wear the lead sheilded gloves that are required to be worn when mixing up a batch of the yam goo.... So tell ya what, m'friend, I'm sending all the ingredients to you, and HEY... ya get to mix up a batch whenever ya feel like it! Ohhh... I've also contacted NASA, and got you a real good deal on them lead shielded gloves! Just drop a $6700 check directly to NASA. (NO...no... ya don't have to thank me, Jack. I'd do that for anyone I respected as much as I do you) <liar, liar, pants on fire!> (giggling) One other thing, Jack... you MIGHT want to make sure your family can get hotel reservations for at LEAST the night of the day ya whip up a batch of the yam gunk. I'd hate to see them all with glowing green teeth! <wee smirk> DO let us all here know how terrific you feel after ya dose yourself with our totally unique Mexican yam ooze product, Jack. We REALLY care! Ohhh.. and Barb Patterson is going to add a "Survivors of Mexican Yam Stuff" sub-board here for those who DO survive. I gotta tell ya, that Barb P. thinks of simply everything!

I have already sent a check to Barb Mallut to cover the cost of the Yam Cream including the shipping! I tried your solution stated above. Didn't have Arrid Xtra dry but used Right Guard. When the sparks ceased flying, I found the virus's lying around on the floor and stomped them good. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the easy remedy. Now can you tell me how to smooth out the cables and wipe away the sparks that occasionally emit from the hardware? Thanks again.......Jack :<)
