Hi Mayf,

Ok, I'll vote. As long as you keep your subject matter to Sunbeams and avoid 
things like mortgage refinance come-ons, touts for Viagra and ways I can buy 
drugs online at a discount I think you should be able to post what you want. 
By the way, thanks for posting the pictures of your Tiger the other day.

My keyboard has a handy 'delete' button that I press if I don't want to read 
something.
