Since no one is posting, guess I'll take another opportunity to tell you a story about my son Johnny. Johnny came home from school one day and told me that he had gotten in big trouble with his math teacher. Johnny wanted to know if we had a gambling problem. I asked him what makes you ask that and he tells me the following story;
My teacher asked me if I knew my numbers.
"Yes," he says. "My daddy taught me."
"Can you tell me what comes after three?"
"Four," answers little Johnny.
"What comes after six?"
"Seven," answers little Johnny.
"Very good," says the teacher. "Your father did a very fine job.
What comes after ten?"
"A jack," answers little Johnny.
Sigh, what's a mother to do????

I liked your story, Joanie. Johnny sounds like quite a handful!
