        She's getting older... Someone should get her a sweater and turn the thermostat down, like we did with our Grams when she cranked it up to 27 degrees. (Meant completely tongue-in-cheek for those who would take this the wrong way)

          How dare you besmirch the Queen :) You should do what we did.

          Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost
