    No way you're predicting 95 wins in 2012 for the O's as constructed unless you're getting pizaad

    One of these years I'll be right, at which time I expect all the posters to marvel at my foresight.

    The clients receive great value as do I in return. The amounts involved are far more than I'll ever need which is why I use it to help others in need who are less fortunate.

    from various comments you've made, I got the sense that you're extremely wealthy. it's nice that you give back to the community.

    do you like to change your hairstyle monthly to keep the tricks guessing?

    Is "tricks guessing" another Brit expression that I missed along the way? My hairstyle hasn't changed in about 50 years - thanks for asking, mate. Cheers.

    Thanks Ken, I will. At my age, hope is about all you've got.
