Thanks Tim.

Glad you to hear you enjoyed Hitching Rides and Happiness. Always good to hear from a former JET. ("When you're a JET, you're a JET . . .")

Cheers,

Will Ferguson

I'm not sure what he means by "When you're a JET, you're a JET . . ." It must have some deep philosophical significance. I'm still trying to figure it out.
