Dear Doctor Bobby, I assume the PhD is not in spelling nor in grammer. I have re-read the post below and don't even recognize there is an error - maybe you can point it out - I am after all just an ignorant foreigner for whom the English langauge presents many pitfalls. My grammer is never correct or at least my sentence structure isn't. Having learned English as second language my inclination is always to set stuff up in my native language's format. I also have the wonderful German habit of never saying in a single sentence what can be drawn out into a long paragraph - LOL Want to count up my Boo-boo's? GRIN The correct fashion in which to address me in writing would be Rev. Trisha Cummings, HP or Rev. Raynyng Angel Watchyng Wolf, HP. I guess I am also Mrs. Patricia Cummings and the most treasured title I have is Mom. Don't we all wear so many hats. My perference for being addressed is just Trisha or Angel. In the distance future on the drawing board is a Doctorate in Computers - so then I will be Witch Doctor - Tee-Hee. I am sure Laura was just teasing, anyway. Brightest Blessings and Hugs Trisha > Trisha(Don't Know the Proper Title for a Pagan Minister) > > You are too kind.
