I...I hope it wasn't Titch's fault you died.<br />I've put "Deceased, return to sender" on envelopes, but haven't yet told callers I'm dead.<br />So many "callers" are machines anyway. Today there was one on my answering machine. It said, "Hello? Hello? Well, I'm glad you're listening, because the credit card companies aren't."<br />All I had to do was hit "erase"!Kay L.
