Why all the bother? Why not?

However, Dan's approach is something I'd NEVER EVER DO.

EVER!

But that's what I love about people, the diversity of talents and quirks
makes the world a much more interesting place.

All I can do is watch people like Dan with amazement and respect. And then
blow off balancing my checkbook to go ride my bike. . .Or drink beer.

Well, just to set the record straight - all the stuff above that appears under 'Dan DiBiase wrote' wasn't actually written by me! My house has natural gas and I don't have a garden. Oh, and my checkbook is a mess.... And I like to drink beer... ;-)
