Good evening. As Mark is maintaining a strict "no Internet" policy at the behest of his therapist, he asked me to please post the following for him: "Kirk! The freakin' month is half over!" I don't exactly know what he's talking about, but he's my son and I never could say no to him. Thank you all for your time. Respectfully, Mark's Mom.

The August Blender is at long last here...a week and 2 days late on a month that already had its first weekend pushed forward a bit, so I'm sorry about that.<BR>
<BR>
Hope you like it...

i.j.h., you definately hava knack for a vivid image or small idea put well.  I admit that I grit my teeth a little with the artist formerly known as Prince-ish 2,u,4,r, etc, but that's 'cause I'm just a conservative old fuddy dud, or just a vanilla white boy from the suburbs, or something.
