[QUOTE="200Meters, post: 755692, member: 23727"] Yes they do. Thank you. About the humor thing. That's just the way I am. If I were to become sullen and morose, that would mean that I'm beaten, that I've given up. That will never, ever happen. I looked at our credit cards on the bank website just now. I have to do that on a regular basis because in years gone by, Oldest has used our card numbers without our knowledge and squandered alot of our money. (See what I mean when I said ) Oldest must have copied one of our card numbers somehow and used it to order 2 pairs of shoes from Amazon for NIS 1,200 (around $350). I phoned the bank, cancelled that card and ordered a new one. I have to phone customer service on Sunday (a workday here) about cancelling the transaction. I told Mrs. 200Meters and phoned Oldest. I told him that it was effing [I][URL='https://www.dictionary.com/browse/chutzpah'][U]chutzpah[/U][/URL][/I] that he had the card number in the first place [I]and[/I] used it without our knowledge. He said, "But Dad, I have the money and can pay you for the shoes." I told him that nobody related to me needs $175-a-pair shoes and that if he actually has the money, he should have paid us back some of the rent and utilities we pay for him. [I]Arggh![/I] If Mrs. 200Meters & I go visit Yougest this Monday at 08:30 again, we will [I]not[/I] do what we did last time, which is stay Sunday night with Oldest & his Lady-friend and then drive the much shorter distance from their place to the prison. Instead we will get up very early and leave our Jerusalem 'burb very early, in order to beat the Jerusalem rush hour traffic and minimize our entanglement in rush hour traffic in the center of the country, in order to be at the prison by 08:30.
