Re: [pyrnet] Hey...

   You have it right,Nancy. Life is for the living, no matter how much
sorrow just living may bring.

   Glad your spirits are back up to snuff.  Just be careful on campus.
I do not wish to hear that you have been corrupted by the good
looking, but weird denizens there.
If you need help going to and fro, call Hermit,l-900-WOOD. (There is a
39-cent charge for the first hour, but after that it is all downhill.)
   Live,girl!

Hermit in the Woods, working on my new concerto in B-flat for
harmonica and gut-bucket bass.
