I would be glad to help in any way I can. I don't know nearly as much as the rest of you do. I am disabled I lost all the fingers on my right hand except my pinkie and it is in a bent position, in an accident at work 5 years ago, so I don't type very fast, but if someone will give me a job, as long as I am able I'll do what I can. My brain still works fairly well, except for the senior moments. bj london ----- Original Message ----- From: "j" <unicorn@sun-spot.com> To: <DanvilleCrossing-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 10:39 PM Subject: RE: Lighting fires Good gal, Rene!!! <BG> We got a dream...yeah...and we want all kinds of dreamers to help us turn it into reality!!!!!
