Where are the pictures of you two stripping. The URL is "Diane and Mark Strip" right? How disappointing. Thanks for the Christmas (birthday) card. We hope you are well. Look's like you are doing good, and I mean that in the syntacically correct sense of you are out there doing some "good" in the world. I love you two. You're pretty special. Come home safely.
Craig and family
