Kal- ((L)) to Mrs K
Beachgirl, Congratulations ((F))

Kal,
Amen re: political conventions and politicians, especially those with law degrees.
More importantly, what beer are you taking to the Mts.?
I really like Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale and drink a few Negra Modelos in MX (most of the rest is/are "plonk" imho). Great vino is my "passion".
