This is in response to Editor Carol's "Begging for Articles" email <G>

From Host GFS Pilgrim

Dear Carol,

I would take time to write something, but until after the first Tuesday in November, I won't have time to do anything outside of my chats.  You see dear one, I am running for public office <G>, and I have an election campaign to run and lots of folks to go knock on their doors and talk to <G> and meetings to make and candidate screenings to attend.  It's hard work trying to get elected to something <G>.

To Host GFS Rip

Thank you very much for your note. I sure do appreciate it. You are the only one on AOL genealogy that has ever taken the time to drop me a note and say hi or anything. God Bless and I will drop in again sometime. Take good care of my friend Bill Isaac.
