It's about an hour past the deadline, and Tim Lodge's busybody has
gathered an incredible NINE votes, making him the next dealer. Four
points back are the lucky "winners," Chris Carson, John Barrs and
Toni Savage. Your humble dealer gets a D3.

To those that care, and most won't, I was in Ft. Lauderdale last April and
went out to lunch with Bill and Sue. I had a bowl of conch chowder for
lunch, thus my definition of minced conch. The soup was much better than my
definition.

Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can
usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.
