Once upon a time a Texan, Californian, and Kelownian went camping. That night around the campfire, the Texan pulled out a bottle of whiskey, pulled off the cap, took a largish swig, and threw the bottle in the air whence he preceded to shoot it with his six-gun. The other two campers looked at him in amazement and asked him why he did that?
"Well, I'm from Texas--the land of livin' large--and there's a lot more whiskey where I come from. We have more than we can handle."
The Californian took out a bottle of red wine and a bottle of micro-brew. After swigging both, he threw the beer and the wine up in the air, stole the Texan's gun and shot them both before they hit the ground. He said,
"I'm from California. We have gun laws, so I borrowed your gun, but that doesn't mean I don't know how to shoot having grown up in Los Angeles. As to the micro-brew and red wine? They're a dime a dozen in California. We have more than we can handle."
The Kelownian, pulled out a bottle of white wine. She carefully pulled out the screw cap, poured a small amount into a carefully sanitized white wine glass, sniffed the full bouquet, and then proceeded to steal the texan's gun and shoot both of the other campers.
After a few minutes of golden, natural silence, the Kelownian was overcome with guilt and meant to confess her sins.
"Dear God I am sorry for drinking the abomination that is white wine. I realize that jesus juice is supposed to be red for blood. I am also sorry for murdering those two campers, but I'm sure you'll forgive me. They were americans, and in Kelowna, there's a lot more where they come from and we already have more than we can handle."

Welcome GregB. I don't know what Jo promised you in order to entice you to join this forum, but it better be good!
I'm sure we'll enjoy your banter around these parts. And, at the very least, I'm sure you don't believe we all live in igloos up here in the cold north.

Heck everyone knows they melt in the summer and we have to wait for the first good snowfall to build our winter homes!

I'd just like to join everyone else in welcoming you to our depraved playground of inanities! I too share your pain in having my spouse espouse my computer skills. Unfortunately, my skills entail turning it on and trying to find the 'any' key.

Yorba Linda; isn't that where the right honorable Richard Nixon was from and is buried?
Yes, I could have googled it but, well hey, maybe I'm right.
