In a rather unusual aside, I was thinking of you in bed the other night. To be more precise, it was after noticing that you'd shot the cover to the latest book that I'm reading; "Fire under the snow" by Palden Gyatso. Great frame and great book, Sir! Cheers for dropping by, squire!

No. 2 is the absolute truth
No. 5 is very funny
No. 9 perhaps with the exception of sports togs who often must*
No.15 should happen much more often
