Hey people. I've just bought Lightwave, so trusty old Vue doesn't get much use anymore. I live in Australia (South), so if anyone wants to buy it, feel free to email me. I'm asking $250 AU. Thanks!

Hey Tin-Man, I know someone who has been pestering me for a copy of Vue that lives in Sth Australia. They r in high school and I'm sure their parents could find a very nice home for your no-longer used version of Vue. Please feel free to contact me at sacredrose@iprimus.com.au, to discuss the finer details of this offer. Awaiting your reply, at your earliest convinience. :-) ps. The child in question overheard my discussion with the parents, and is waiting with baited breath. LOL Sacred

We briefly interrupt your transaction to bring you this important bulletin: Grammar lesson 501 -- He is waiting with bated breath. meaning: He is so excited, he is only barely breathing. He is waiting with baited breath. meaning: His breath is so bad, it smells like a trap. As you were. :) Varian

$250.00 AU? What's that in U.S. currency? Well, if the kid in S Australia gets it, make sure y'all direct him over here! I hope baited doesn't mean he's HOLDING his breath..., 'cause if the mail there is as slow as it is here, well, that guy's a gonner...LOL

U guys!!! Just for the record, I do believe the child did hold their breath (several times) trying to control their excitement! LOL...at last contact with the parents, this evening,...the child was overheard speaking in hushed, excited whispers the words Yes! Yes! Yes!, behind the privacy of their bedroom door...LOL AU currency is approximately .59c to the US $1. So for this family, this will be a godsend. As for directing the child here...U better believe it BUDDY!!! ;) I just hope that TinMan contacts me soon, so that we can discuss putting him into contact with the parents; and letting the poor kid, bring his feet back down to earth, and finishing off his end-of-school-year exams..there are still 2 more weeks to go, he needs to focus LOL. SO there! ;-p~ ps. merci for the grammar lesson Varian; U r a man of many talents!!! I am even more impressed now than I was before...and that's saying something :D

Sacred, Tin Man is hangin' out at the Lightwave forum here now... Bet ya wouldn't have seen THAT coming! ;) It's possible that he doesn't have the "email me when someone replies" thingie checked. I'll put a quick and small message there for him to see, 'cause he probably doesn't want to hang out with us low tech people anymore. LOL! :P Mike
