Evenin' George,

Heres the bit of history I mentioned in the previous message.


 Heres a bit if history trivia for ya'll:

 In the olden days when houses had thatched roofs, they were nothing
but thick straw, piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only
place for animals to get warm, so all the pets(?) ...dogs, cats and
other small animals, mice, rats, & bugs lived in the roof. When it
rained, it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and
fall off the roof.

 Hence the saying, "It's raining cats and dogs."


 Strange, but _true_. :)
