Hi y'all,

 

List Mama said I could post this cause time is running out.

 

Thanks to all those who have ordered .. and a couple of you have ordered

in the last few hours but I've not confirmed the order yet .. I will do

that in the morning. Tis after 0210 in the morning here in Turkey.

 

I'm sorta laid back now and having a few Rakis .. which is a fantastic

Aromatherapeutic Product made from co-distilled grapes and Anise Seed.

I'm celebrating because I just completed the 126 PAGES of bureaucratic

humma-humma needed to get my wife an American Immigrant Visa and we turn

it into the American Embassy tomorrow.

 

Told her it would be easier if we just took a vacation to Mexico and she

could sneak across from Juarez to El Paso then turn herself in. ;-)

 

In any case .. y'all got roughly 6 + hours left on the below IF you live

on the East Coast USA .. if you live in California there are two up

sides to that .. you have more time to order .. and it could be worse

cause you coulda been born in North Korea. ;-)

 

Y'all have a good one .. and keep smiling. :-)
