We're pleased that you are happy and we are happy that you are pleased with 
your new purchase. You have joined a fraternity, and like all fraternities, 
I think you'll find that most everyone you meet in Triumphland will go out 
of their way to help you. Sounds like you're in the right place!

BTW, when I was in Ireland a few years ago, I was in the bar at the Sligo 
Hotel the night of the all- Ireland competition, compliments of Mr. Patrick 
McNamara, secretary of golf at Sligo. Now, I'm at the piano, singing all 
the Irish standards w/ a couple of obviously American schoolteachers when 
the one stops and asks me, "Where you from Laddie?" To which I replied, 
"Ohio".  The ladies were from York, PA.  Yes, I have red hair and a large 
Irish face, kinda like Victor McLaughlin in "The Quiet Man".
