An other way to put it: You are not crazy if you talk to yourself (as we do it). You are not even crazy if you answer yourself (particularly if your answer is clever) - YOU ARE ONLY CRAZY IF YOU INTERRUPT YOUR OWN CONVERSATION ( what we never do!) Right James? smile

You can use that excuse only if you habitually interrupt yourself

An other way to put it: Just because a bikini exposes 90% of the female body and if men still look for the 10 % which is still covered, that is classy not crazy!

Thank you,I might just take your word for it,since it is so long.If I do try it,I will play down to the last card,and not finish,because I didn't solve it.Thanks friend.

where you said the 5s over and 6s up,well the 5h was sitting on the six of spades,so I got hearts out of the way so I could play the 6s.That is why I had more moves.I hope.
