[AJD] late B

[Dean VP]

Ron:

Sorry but just thinking about a few beers, all those suburbs of that major
metropolitan Center of Sioux City that start with an S get all kinds of
slurred together. Sioux City, Sioux Land, South Sioux City, South Dakota,
Sioux Gateway, Sioux River, Sergeant Bluff, Salix & Sloan. Just can't keep
them all straight anymore. Old age is really a punishing villain!

We will be expecting a welcoming party at the Omaha Airport! Another suburb
of Sioux City in the Northwest part of Iowa!  :-)

Dean,
	I have to clear up one thing.  Neither JR nor I are from Salix.  I 
happen to live here since 1999, but I spent the first 55 years at Sgt. 
Bluff.  JR grew up in Sloan.  We probably don't trust those people from 
Salix either. <g>

	2nd..3rd..doesn't matter.  I'll probably be around.  Might even make
a 
special effort if you are buying the first one.
