Yes I hear you just accepted the job of speech writer for George W. Bush.
:-)

At least I said "jet sixes" and not "jet sexes" instead of "jet sizes." :-)

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.  Yes, it should have read
that the head's ink chamber on cartridge based printers is small, so it
wouldn't take too long to flush.

Then again, I'm guessing you mean "jet sizes" not jet sixes ;-)
