Ron quoted me thus:

Elsie:

> After I was done giving them my answer, they looked like Linus van Pelt of
> the Peanuts after Lucy has given him a peace of her mind (you know, hair
> straight backward, horizontal in the air...).

Ron, I promise I'll never misspell "piece of her mind" again (this was not
my day for spelling, obviously!), if you promise to learn to tell me apart
from Elsie (a helpful hint: she usually writes in Afrikaans)...

Gabriele, Elsie,

"Elsie"?!  I did?!  Nah!  I must have been even less awake and lucid than I
thought.

I most grovelingly beg your pardon, especially Elsie for seemingly calling
her a "favorite rodent."

I know y'all forgive me some day.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron

P.S.: "But I'm *cute*!" as my niece used to say when she knew she had done
something bad.
