well "old buddy!" ;-) speak fer yerself as a little fondling never hurt 
anyone!;-) My problem is I can't remember what it was we're supposed to 
fondle? And given a leica is always near by it seems the most logical! ;-) 
And you can do that on a Vespa without little blue pills! ;-)

However, the back seat of a Mustang convertible.... top up.... sounds 
interesting. ;-) But with white cotton gloves?
