________________ I used to think they were called "sheep showers" - I don't think I would recognize one now if it jumped up and bit me. My, my, these Maupins are sure gabbers. I can say that because I merely married into the family and it's rubbed off on me. But it's nice to know there are a lot of night owls out there just like me. I've been to bed already but got up - couldn't sleep. Came downstairs and had dozens of Maupin e-mails. I enjoy every one of them. I knew I picked a winner when I latched on to Lynn!!!!! She could take care of us all. I relate to the Okie twang. I used it the first 26 years of my life. When I go back, I can detect just the slightest difference from our Missouri twang. Can't relate to all the animals though. Have had only one dog in my married life - a sweet Beagle who was stolen. Both daughters are dog crazy though. Don't remember who mentioned reading a mystery. Do you like Sue Grafton? I do. I have written 2 or 3 mysteries but they aren't as good as hers. AND they are unpublished. Ha. Ha. Or "hee hee" as Sandi says. The other day I mentioned teaching the girls in the crinoline skirts. Wouldn't you have hated to teach during the mini skirt era? I have a friend who did. Said you could see from here to yonder on the girls in the front row. The Front Row reminds me of Bob Ueker (sp). I'm rambling so much it sounds like I've been drinking. Not true. I don't indulge. I guess my insomnia is making me goofy. Consider the source. Bettye (Mrs. Max G.) Maupin-Rolla MO> ________________________________________ >Oh yes!!
