  Ouch! I was wondering why you turned right when you headed out the
driveway. :-) Glad to hear everyone got home OK. :-)

   Yep, we got hammered pretty hard. I forgot to check the rain
gauge, but I'm sure we got a lot. Hmm, according to the stats, only
an inch, but I guess that's still somewhat impressive considering that
it rained for less than an hour. I'm sure it sounded interesting from
within DML HQ for Tom. :-) I was up in the house by that time.

cheaper to buy a whole new printer rather than a new set of toner
cartridges. :-P (That's the main reason why I haven't purchased a
color laser printer yet...)
