John,

1.  I'm sorry I forgot who "John" was.  I must have been dazzled by visions
of  Johnette.  Hey, maybe you are two related, like Sharpshooter and Arkie
Cuz,    and The Vermonters?

2.  It sure does sound like "sategy", but I'm disappointed to see that S
couldn't    come up with something.  I even thought about looking for a
libretto to see what    it's supposed to be, but I guess I don't have to. And
all these years I thought   "orange" was the only word that didn't have a
rhyme.
