[Ducati] We Need To Ride! Was: Insurance ponderings

[Ronald Betts]

Well said Gabriel......and yes Chihuahuas are pure joy. We have three...and 
a Rot and a Pit and 3 cats and a red nose turtle in a tank with a one finned 
goldfish as a room mate. Ahhhh, life is good.
And Hail the Two Wheeled Gods from Balogna.....;-}>



Peace...Ron"Desmohead"Betts 95 900 SP
I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it!
