    Wonderful photo of you two, Perry! That's an early time to go back to work, I'd say. The school should have given you the rest of the week. But back to the photo, by "catching" you at the foam pit, did you mean Alice FOUND you there or said "Young men, exactly what are you two doing????"

    Nice gear! I'm unfamiliar with the Theophile Berthon soap.

    Thank you, Gentlemen.

    And I would also like to thank everyone who sent their thoughts and prayers in the December thread that I am unable to reply to.

    I thought that was the Cartel's code name for @BaylorGator. The only things he knew during his formative years were swag and Happy Meals.
