That's it, Barb, that's it.  Way to go girl!  Hey, you gotta admit it is an 
off the wall song by Arlo.  I used to be able to recite Alice's Restaurant, 
word for word.  Pretty cool, don't you think?

"You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant, except for Alice. Go on 
in it's around the back, just a half a mile from the railroad track, you can 
get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant."

Some of the ideas from that song kept me out of Vietnam when I lost my 
college deferment (someday I'll write about my expulsion from Penn State).  
Hard to believe I ended up retiring from the Air Force.  haha.

As for you, Angie you Angie (I swear I'm gonna get that phrase going here), I 
must say I was flattered you considered me stud material, even if it is only 
a teaser stud.  Since that's an area of horse ownership I'm not all that 
familiar with, maybe you can teach those of us who aren't experienced stud 
handlers, such as yourself, exactly what the job entails.  As far as gelding 
me goes, you really need to put that fantasy to rest.  We have few enough men 
at these rides, as it is, and your talking that way isn't helping to increase 
the numbers.  Have fun at Reno, and put it all on RED 23.  And get them to 
move the convention to Atlanta,  just once before I die (which might not be 
much longer if you ever do catch me with that gelding knife), by threatening 
to move out west if they don't.

cya,
Howard
