Hi Everyone: Thank you for all the greetings I have received from everyone. No I am not dead and have not run away from home. I have only been busy as a one armed paper hanger this year. This year I have been working for my daughter and her husband in their new credit repair business, then last September my sister's oldest son moved to Albuquerque from Ft Worth and we have gone into the Bean business and have become the "Bean Kings" of the whole world. Next year we will shoot for the title of the Universe. I know the list has died off some but it is not dead it is only dozing, otherwise you would have not sent so many great, warm and totally fun emails. I am well and alive and wish you all a very warm: "MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HANUKKAH, SHALOM, HAPPY KWANZA,_______ (PLEASE INSERT ANY MISSED CHRISTMAS GREETINGS I'M DUMB ENOUGH NOT TO KNOW.) I love all you guys.----Jim
