When I returned from the Nationals I was met with a number of false stories from some lovely folks. That night I replied in kind to each of them. I was removed from the list though the others were not. After two days of bashing, I was bouncing in my chair, gripping the keyboard and my eyes were rolling around in my head. Due to a nieve over-developed sense of "fair play" I sent a reply to my personal mailing list in response. ILEANA NOGUERAS answered my email with a terrible letter and hit, "reply all." That's why you've gotten this ongoing email list. Had she replied privately to me or even to me and the list, this never would have happened. Dear Gene, a very good guy, replied to her letter and hit the wrong button. (I did not send Ileana's letter to AKC, Happy Birthday Ileana). This now ends the questions, and the subject. As far as the 2006 Nationals, I truly understand the term of "all work and no play" which I will make up for next year. Besides...Eddie will correct all my mistakes! Be well, be happy and hug your dog. Helen THE END ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
