I'm very surprised at you Ann. I meant my salutation sincerely. There was
no snipe - just a sincere greeting - a "no offense taken" kind of
ending. I'm reasonably sure it is not accepted, but I offered it
anyway. I hope it didn't offend you.

I don't see myself as a bulldozer - but I do see tendencies towards that
end. The same is true for the Sniper. I always think it is good for
someone to see what they can continue to improve about themselves - I'm
certain the list would be even more fun if others did as well.

I've read the first two and seen Tim Green do his schtick - very
entertaining and enlightening. I'm not familiar with the second, and I
have heard about the third but not read it.
