Barb,
Very well spoken.

uninvited, unwanted, "visitor". It sleeps with us, eats with us, goes =
everywhere with us. Neither one of us (Bob w/PD) want it here; but NO =
ONE or ANYTHING would scare me away from the person I love, so it's the =
three of us now. And that's just the way it is. I also know that if I =
were sick Bob would stick by me too.
P.S. Re: Cyber Reunion -- we like the sound of Vegas too.
Jackie & Bob
