Are you sure you're not ...

... a lawyer? <g>

>> "I'll lay 2 to 1 odds the next one has dice. If I'm wrong I'll trade 2 snappers for one" of the new dry heats. <<

Notice how smoothly he adds the five words which are not in quotes to try to subtly change the meaning of the sentence.

Once you've done that, though, Larry, what the sentence REALLY means is that you will trade 2 of the new dry heat snappers for one. Which, of course, really means that you just owe me one of the new ones, unless we want to go through the charade of having you send me two and me sending one of them back!! <g>

Let me know how you'd like to handle this. And, in the future, remember to be careful who you play lawyer word games with -- some of us have a lot of experience at it! <G> ----- jim o\-S
