It's jobs or else... and I don't think anyone really wants to contemplate the "else."Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-26051300139570715832011-04-22T12:25:39.125-05:002011-04-22T12:25:39.125-05:00mandt - same for me, but I'd rather have it sc...mandt - same for me, but I'd rather have it scrambled. :-)Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-79157072234508605292011-04-22T12:22:28.165-05:002011-04-22T12:22:28.165-05:00There.

I hope you don't have spam in your Fresh Garden. <br /><br />If I can manage to do so using Blogger's primitive comment interface, I shall replace your comment... same content, but no From information. That way, there won't be any spam value to it.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-74719139967190934632011-04-22T12:15:49.703-05:002011-04-22T12:15:49.703-05:00Don't worry, be happy!
