My personal fav: "The Law of Unintended Consequences..."

which holds that almost all human actions have at least one unintended consequence. In other words, each cause has more than one effect, including unforeseen effects. The Law of Unintended Consequences perversely insinuates itself in all of the other Laws.

Re: Charles!...I went from bliss and tranquility to

everything moving at the speed of light. Wow! I had forgotten how things are away from the farm. I have been so busy I can hardly wait for my annual pre-Christmas shopping tip to Vegas. The nice thing about Notary Rotary is one can go away and come back and all the issues are the same, non-paying SS, new recruits demanding their entitlements, its like one never left, only the names change. Of course, I come back to check and see what my favorite people are up to ! I notcie you have been scarce here yourself. Thanks, I got the pics and they were awesome. I'm not AWOL just busier than the proverbial one-armed paper hanger. You haven't lost my e-mail address have you? Same e-mail same cell! TTFN
