   I dont drink - but have some 10 year old Glenmrangie on me. Let me know   
   where your favorite water hole is and I will make sure there is some single   
   highland malt scotch waiting for you.   
      
   Now, I guess you not going to vote for George Bush.  So why the hell dont   
   you run for office Joe.   
      
   I believe Bush flew 80 missions in the Pacific. 24 missions you get an Air   
   Medal ? during WWII ?  He should have at least three devices on his AM.   
   Maybe I am just partial to Aviators,   
      
   So what's stopping you from running for office - the mining companies ? Your   
   an old ridge runner, get in your pickup truck and get a few hundred   
   signatures and get on the ballot - run for Congress.
