I've decided to make Wednesday the day that I check the box, and not worry about it otherwise. If the box gets full, they just put a card in there, and I have to claim the waiting mail at the counter. But, if I don't have to go out on other errands, it's best to stay home, and not waste the gasoline with driving...never mind fighting the traffic.

To each, their own. BM> Again I'd have consideration for comfort, ease of biting and chewing. I just have to be careful not to break a tooth. There's a candy known as "Jawbreakers". :P BM> My wife is so ugly a cannibal took one look at her and ordered salad. Or this one... Daryl ....
