Hi, Marsha!

> I should have asked here ages ago, I guess.

Well, that'll learn ya.

> Barnacle goose, eh?  Well, I'll be....  I like it!

Great!  So do I.  What's not to like about a barnacle goose?  Perhaps that
Irish ancestor many generations ago got that nickname because he (or she?)
was a honker.  ;-)

Cool!  And then probably hit the razzle-dazzle of Vegas, huh?  You'll have
to let us know when you little love birds will be back online so we can
drink an e-toast to your everlasting happiness with you actually present.
All the best with the wedding, Marsha!  I'm happy for you.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
