Thanks, Lou, for the advice. I asked, at Big Bend, "Where's John?" You said he was home skinning a fish, which I thought an odd way to describe cleaning a fish. I said "So you're having fish for dinner?" You said no, whatever made me think that. And I repeated your remark about skinning a fish, and you said: "I said he's home painting a fence!" And you laughed and suggested I needed hearing aids. I got 'em, Lou. Thanks for the tip, and for always being so upbeat and pleasant. An old golfing friend, Jim George.
