Thanks all I know for now.   Just thought you guys would like to know.  Twirl, herself,  sounds a little better.

Come to think of it, nothing is funny anymore.

Nothing that I post here is intended for fact but rather for exploration into my personal thought processes.  Any slight, use of words with multiple connotations or other percieved insults are totally unintended.  I reserve my insults for private.
