Nah.  My on-the-fly invoices don't need a whole column for a  
phone number.  I've gotten used to just prefixing the number  
with a " ' " symbol and the number: '###-###-####, and then the  
minus sign doesn't trigger a math function.

Hmmm..  I think that Master was part of the presentation, yes!

At the time, I did not know this. I think the dictionary that I  
used at the time primarily defined Esq as "a title of respect".  
So, seeing my name appended with Esq was fine by me!

yes..  it becomes more like "tsoo".  But shit zoo is more fun  
and get away with saying shit!  LOL
