Gee Henning you being a right fine friend as well as having a wonderful wife 
and family, I know you value your life very much. Allow that, " as I type 
I'm smiling." :-) However on Wednesday that could turn into a horrible scowl 
and cross bones! ;-) Therefore may I suggest an unhurting situation can be 
avoided by asking you nicely that the "purchase word not be in your 
vocabulary Wednesday! ;-)

OR! It may become very sorrowful AND hurting when Vinnie and Guido arrive 
around midnight in your bedroom! ;-)

I know, "you wont broach the subject, thank you." You're so kind. ;-)  I 
knew you'd understand the critical moments we might be discussing. :-) I 
also realize you're such a caring fellow and wouldn't want to see me throw a 
tantrum in the middle of Susan's garden while beating myself or possibly 
you, to a pulp!:-)

So in the event "buy, purchase or any connotation of those words" should not 
become part of the discussion while I'm playing with the M8. And that being 
the case may I suggest..... if they do you know what's coming. A hurtful 
experience! ;-)

Looking forward to a fun time M8 playing on Wednesday! :-) None of the above 
should be taken as threats, merely promises with a smile! ;-)

Your very good friend,
ted.
