: Let us know how you liked it. I thought it very interesting, and liked Wes a lot...but I think Jason Patrick should find another job! Never seen such a wooden face in my life! I'm curious to know if this is just my own particular aversion.

: We had our floods and tornadoes in the spring! I was appalled at the damage and loss of life from that episode, and now, THIS! I don't know what is going on in my state! It is very frightening. The photos yesterday of the pall of smoke over downtown Orlando were horrible. All celebrations for the 4th were cancelled. The local highschool down the block is filled to capacity with refugees. Large sections of I-95 are closed completely. The entire population of Flagler county has been evacuated. Over 5,000 firemen have been brought into the state to help. The Daytona Beach Speedway has converted all of their facilities into housing for them. And still the fires burn, with no relief in the foreseeable future, sweeping over forests and houses alike. It's very sad when your only hope is a severe tropical storm! (They are saying it would take two weeks of steady rain to help the situation, or a severe storm/hurricane!)
: Thanks so much for your good wishes! It helps to know the world is concerned! Patty, let us hear from you today, so we know you are safe!
