>Boston since it left Te Papa, New Zealand and they all recommend it very, 
>very highly. I don't know about you, but I would love to get a look at some

Celebrate who you are. After all, you can't be anyone else.
A friend comes and bails you out of jail - a True Friend is sitting next to 
you in the cell going, "Wow, that was fun!"
Speak softly and own a big, mean Doberman. -Dave Miliman
Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are 
allowed to remain children all our lives.  -- Albert Einstein
