Ken,

Did you leave a message on my answering machine? I left town Thursday
afternoon and did not check my messages until yesterday. Someone left a
message complaining that I never call or write but did not leave their
name or number. This seemed to be the weekend for such calls. My buddy
Joey Dituri also called and complained that I haven't returned his
calls. He's in Hawwai and the time difference does make it a little
difficult.
 
BTW, as a reformed wreck-diver, I'd be happy to tell you how and where
the crow bar is attached. Don't forget the sawed-off sledge hammer (the
handle is sawed off, not the hammer head) and cold chisel, no serious
wrecker would be without one :-)
