You are such a snot, Bubba. Really. Seriously. I'm prone to
depression but have never been suicidal. Homicidal, maybe, when the
Beet Boy knocks on the door. "-) Do you like pickled beets? I need to
know because I'd hate to waste the postage if YOUR TRUE COLOR shown
through and YOU don't eat them, either. Come to think of it, I've
never seen you express much interest in them other than to needle me.
Hmmmmm?? I gotta say, though, that the Beety Beauty schtick never fails
to crack me up. Prevert. (And that's how it's spelled, by the by!)
