Re: Some eye candy

["Stephen Andrachek" <s.andrachek@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ted,

It was my pleasure.  Maybe I'll send out some more today.  I never tire of 
looking at my Mopar pics.  I have so many of them but my sister trashed my 
PC and I'm using an older operating system, Windows XP and many of my 
pictures are huge.  I can't find any software to reduce many of them to the 
correct size to send out.  I have some of the reduced ones from the old 
machine and I'll pick on those files and see what I can do to get some more 
out very soon.  I'm going to start right now.

Thanks for the positive feedback.  I hope the comments that came with the 
pictures didn't offend anyone.

Chick
