SCOTT, YOU'RE SO INTUITIVE !! ACTUALLY IT'S A LITTLE OF BOTH.
I'M REMINDED OF A RECENT CONVERSATION WITH TWO FRIENDS, BOTH
OF WHOM HAVE TWO BIG HEALEYS.
FRIEND #1 - Nice looking Healey, you do good work. What did

FRIEND #2 - New dining room furniture.
FRIEND #1 - Hmmm, what did your first Healey cost?
FRIEND #2 - A Game Room.
