Just two questions....what kind of pears did you eat?  And where did you get them?

Damn it! I want to see how it ends! This was one of the> most vivid dreams I've ever had. Could have rolled credits at the end!> _______________________________________________> Northkeep mailing list> Northkeep at lists.ansteorra.org> http://lists.ansteorra.org/listinfo.cgi/northkeep-ansteorra.org
