It's perhaps the better way since the passage of time seems to highlight the good things while some of the not so good ( like sailing in a storm with lightning hissing all around our now 30 ft. boat as it struck the wa- ter with a metal mast 40 feet in the air) are best forgotten. Perhaps I will discuss more of these memories with my friends in the Mirror. - John A Jackson - From page 5 names'that sound classy, like "Bridle leathers". These cases, the catalog says, are also ideal as a personal condom case. As opposed to what? A public condom case? Do you think your man will be enormously proud of a personal condom case handcrafted of the finest Bridle leather? If you do, get another guy. If you're searching for things we don't need, what about the "Escape Hammer". This is a thing that if you're trapped in your car, if you run off a bridge into a river, it has heavy conical steel points to punch out the window and a recessed razor sharp steel blade to slice through your seat belt, thus aiding your escape from the cold, icy, dark depths of the water. In my car, I know what would happen. I'd run off the bridge into the water, I'd be trapped in my car, the frigid water inexorably rising , with mere seconds to save myself, and I'd be thinking, "Where on earth did I put that damned escape hammer? Did I put itin the trunk?" If not in the trunk, it would be under the seat where I couldn't reach it, or more likely, simply misplaced. After all, I lose my glasses ten times a day and I need them to see. How would I find something that in 50 years of driving, I've never needed? If you want your sweetie to travel to the great beyond with the words, "Damn, where did I put it?", and you just might, then I think you should give him the Escape Hammer. You may have to wait a lifetime for your reward, but oh, how sweet it will be. - George Underhill Coming to Cinefest: 2 Mon July 11: Special animation pro- 2 gram :Cinefest presents what you won't find anyplace else!
