Dan, i think you are getting quite lawyer-like in the way you are dodging the use of emoticons

Paternal grandfather was a lawyer.
Father was a lawyer.
Older brother is a lawyer.
Perhaps I did not emerge entirely unscathed.

"His father was a mudder!
"His father was a mudder?
"His mother was a mudder!
"His mother was a mudder?"
Peter, we are going to have to keep a close on on Dan's evasiveness (sp?) when it comes to dodging emoticons!
