And this time heading for carrying on for days too -Just as of old whirling around, in and out with such speed and omnipresence that no one person is ever sure where to find it A beepIng system is tentatively in effect but it is doubtful that even it can keep up the pace, right Donn W. You just won't stop it and settle down, will you? That poor man must think he's really gotten himself in a fix this time. You have no mercy or at least no more than the wicked witch of the north did on Little Alice.

...S. LAURENCE, wr ver are you doing down there at CSU soooo much? Of all places and the time of day to be in such a location Its been said your car has a "homing" device for the bookstore and BIJOU...better you should stick to them--at least fil warmer weather

If it isn't one thing it s something else. Thom D. First it was the "typewriter," now it's screaming eagles off the walls!. You do go for the unusual ones, don't you?

If you're looking for a pleasant new place to have dinner or brunch. you might want to check the RICHFIELD TAVERN in Richfield Township near Bath. Ohio The food is good, the ser Vice very good and the scenery excellent. Cruise on down and have a good time in a quaint Old English/Colonial setting

I hear there's a man behind every tree out there in Thomp son, RICK. But the problems seems to be that you haven't seen anything but schrubs in months. Better do some transplanting soon or else call the RANGERS in for consultation You know what can happen when there are no trees
