Geez Mark, why does everybody have to download so much double trash

into his mailbox? Could you at least delete the superfluous info like

all the list ads, and be careful not to send the same message three

times over? What is going on with you, huh? Thinking with the wrong

head?? ;-)

 

Love,

Mira
