RE: [pyrnet] Gordon's quest



Oh My God- Gordon!  Every one of your salutations
makes me laugh out loud!  My co-workers think I'm
nuts. (I am, but that's not important!)

   Wonderful,Julie!

    Tell them to take Highway 61 from
Elizabethtown, east to
Columbia,Ky., park at the Chevron station and go
behind
Wal-Mart to a white house, where shoes are sold at
ridiculously low
prices.  One pound of sang will outfit the whole
family and leave
enough for lunch at Sirious Coffee
House, on the Public Square.If advance notice is
given, I can have
guides at each turn to cue the driver. (Just
another
public service by Hermits Unlimited.)
   Good on you.

   Hermit in the Woods, singing  Squaws Along the
Wabash,
or some such tribute to the great state of
Indiana.
