Who's wine, what wine, where the hell have I dined.
Damn, I must have missed that.  Was running around the house cleaning in
preps for a visit from the rents.
I just couldn't understand why they kept saying "auto accident", and not
mentioning the drunk driver aspect.
Thanks.
I feel better now.

Listen Bjorn, I know what's best for you. 
JUST KIDDING!
But, I do have to say that this is a HUGE turn around for you.
I'm quite surprised.
And, I don't buy that The Who doesn't play for the fun of the game.  I also
don't buy that John has more fun with JEB.  If he does, it's simply because
he's the focus of attention while with JEB, and has to share with The Who.
I *do* hear what Billy is saying regarding getting too close.  I've felt it
too.  Chase your hero, and you may catch him and find that he's just human
after all.
But, haven't you known that all along??
The Who are 3 guys (ok 4 or 5 depending on your view), all very human.

Guess all I want to say is don't be so quick to dismiss them.  They are
still the same guys that you fell in love with in the beginning.  Pete still
believes in what he believes.  John is the same guy with JEB as he is with
The Who.  And Rog is still Rog.

That would have been asking too much from our government, or the IOC.
I agree with you though.
Or the gentleman who was initially accused of planting the bomb.  The
Security officer who saved numerous peoples lives by evacuating many, and
then got smeared.
Still no apology from the FBI.
The man's life has been runined, and we apparently don't give a shit.
There was a lengthy piece about him on 60min. recently.

Can we call you "Mr. Whipple"?

ok, I know, never heard *that* one before have you.

Yep, missed that part.  Damn house cleaning.
Thanks though.

Eh????
