Too lazy to look up the link right now, but I thought it took a lot of hudzpa for someone to steal the wheels and tires off the Health Minister's car.

Right word, wrong spelling. For the future it's spelled "chutzpah".

My favorite section of Chuck Shepherd's "News Of The Wierd" was always the "Least Competent Criminals" department. It was so popular that Shepherd published a paperback "Least Competent Criminals" a collection of the best stupid criminal stories from his weekly columns.

And how y'all doin? I've been spending most of my forum time for the last three and a half years doing battle on a couple of political/current events boards.

Thanks Pat. We haven't traveled outside of the country in eight years. A few domestic trips, the last one to Santa Fe in May 2019 to see the O'Keeffe home and studio, and other sights. So I don't have all that much to contribute to a travel forum anymore. We've had a place over in the Indiana Dunes since 2003, a block from the big lake. So that's where we've been getting our beach time in.

Hi Alan, good to hear from you. I visited Santa Fe in 1976, i remember the famous opera house. I can recall because I had asthma attack and wound up in St. Vincent hospital. Fond memories.

Be safe and well

Thanks J.D. We are dug in and behaving ourselves. We're geezers of course but our general health is really good so we are convinced we will get through this in fine shape. Hope you and yours are doing well too.

Y'know...we thought Santa Fe was kind of the Grand Case of the desert. Just a whole bunch of really great restaurants in the downtown part of town.

You guys take care as well.
