Jim Shaver Oakville, Ont.

>Hey Chcio,

Maybe you need to offer your house as the location...you know, a full time job too...makes sense, what do you think??

Imagine that late night walk to the fridge to get a glass of milk, but instead.. you get pulled away by the force of all those BU planes instead...could be a dream...or could it be...??

:-)

take care,

Jim
