LOL .. It happened again Christine. I type a long one and the computer weasels at it before I could send it. When Travis answered the telephone this evening when I called you, he sounde so mature after all he has gone thru with his fantastic mother. He is quite the young man and the Marines should be glad to have him as one of them.As for you young lady, you sounded fantastic too and your words were crystal clear. You are one tough lady. I am proud to say I know Christine Brader and she is my buddy for life. You are one that deserves the name LADY or MAM. No one deserves them more. I am looking forward to the day we go have our steak dinner and can talk across the table and not the internet. Thanks for being so nice and such an intelligent lady. God gave you the best of everything. Your Buddy for life,, Jim
