Patti,
I am a 21 year old college student and am in a committed, monogamous relationship with my 28 year old boyfriend of 2 1/2 years. While I recognize I still have a lot of learning and growth to do, do you think that someone cannot experience true love at my age? Is it somehow wrong or naive of me to be excited about working towards this common goal? What "stage of life" (rather than specific age) do you think is best to enter into marriage?
Cat

Cat, you’re in a catch-22. On the one hand, you’re young and haven’t experienced life – you may be smart, but you have no wisdom. On the other hand, your heart is telling you you’re in love and that this is the ONE. The question you have to ask yourself is, “What’s more important to me… finishing the stage of life that is freedom, or taking the next step.” That’s a question you have to ask yourself seriously. The one thing you don’t want to do is take the wrong step.

 

Hi Patti!
I've just started watching your show, and now I'm addicted! I'm 21, and I've dated 6 gay men before, one being my ex-fiancé of two years. I'm usually the first person (even before their parents or friends) they "come out" to because they say I'm so accepting of people. I like a sensitive, well-kept man with my same interests (stereotypical of gay men). How can you tell if a guy is gay, or just metro? Why do gay men date women (if they say they knew all along?!) And WHY do they come out to ME? Thanks!
Dawn

Dawn, STOP IT. There are PLENTY of well-kept men out in the world that aren’t gay. What, are you picking them up at gay bars? You know what you’re doing, and why you’re doing it. This sounds more like a person that is purposely sabotaging their own love life because they’re afraid to be in serious relationship more than anything else.

i keep hearing on your show intro that you have a 99% success rate. but none of the people shown on the show seem to stay together. so do any of them really? and if so, why not have a show showing how successful your matchmaking really is -

HEY PATTY!

first of all i would like to let you know i am the daughter of a beautiful women inside and out! we love watching your show together and we love ur opinion on older women and how they deserve the same chance as a young women. but men just have an unrealistic outlook on what they want and that has been a huge problem in my mothers life. i know it may sound typical for a daughter to say, oh my moms the greatest women and mother but she really and truely is. she is 45 yrs old with 3 grown children. she takes good care of herself and it pays off because she looks incredible for her age. she is smart, hard working and is open minded with many great qualities but yet she still cant find a good guy or at least a descent guy. thats why im writing to you so you could help me find her a man. i know you could make it happen!
P.S.
one little detail i forgot to mention...SHE'S BRAZILIAN :)

Dear Patti,

I am watching the episode where you help the businessman, who happens to be gay, find a match. You pelted this poor rich man with every negative stereotype out there just because you may have gay friends, who obviously don't behave themselves.

I am not gay, but I can imagine that when you blurted out, "I just love the Gays!", it probably felt very similar to what it would feel like to have someone say to me, "I just love the Blacks!", or, someone say to you, "I just love the Jews!" (then go into this long list of every negative stereotype of how they believe a Jewish person lives)

That is NOT a compliment. That comment separates the other person from YOUR idea of humanity. You obviously believe that people not in 'your group' spend their lives waiting for some type of acceptance from 'your group.'

I love your show, and your rules are spot on. I will definitely continue to watch, but a lot of times your comments are as crass as some of the behaviors of your client's and their matches. (like when you told the rich guy that he needed a chin implant when you have the same problem with your chin, and telling people you don't like their haircut when your klaustrofobic haircut accentuates an already long and narrow face)

This is the first time that I have ever posted a comment, but I just could not let this obvious display of prejudice fly. To quote you, "I had to call her on it"

HI Patti
I'm a 50yr.old Muslim woman. I am divorced and have 2 grown children. When people meet me they think I'm in my 30s, I do watch what I eat and I go to the gym 5-6 times a week. I live in NY but am having a difficult time finding a Muslim man that is compatible. I dont like the bar or club scene. Do you have any Muslim clients or know where I can go to meet some in NY?

Patti,

I'm 39 years old and soon to turn 40.

Boy do I need your help! I am recently separated from my husband of almost 6 years. (He is a millionaire.) From watching your show I see that a lot of the millionaires are somewhat "strange" and selfish and reminds me a lot of my husband. The selfishness and lack of affection is what has ultimately broken up this marriage. My problem is that I fell in love with an "flame" who recently came back into my life. We had a brief emotional affair which became physical (very briefly & we stopped short of going "all the way") and back to the emotional affair. We live about 2 hours from each other. The other problem....he's married too!! He says he wants to leave his wife, opened a secret checking account, PO Box and everything. He is not a millionaire and has 2 kids. I don't care about the money because I love him so much and I've learned that love is SO MUCH better than money.

Unlike me he doesn't have the money to just pack up and go and I understand that...I was broke once too. It's only been a month since I moved out on my own but how long is long enough for HIM to do the same? I WILL NOT wait forever. That's not my style. I know this is probably the dumbest move of my life but I had to decide between being rich and unhappy or taking a chance on love and I know this is a BIG change with no guarantees. HELP! I love you and you have FANTASTIC advise and are blunt and straight forward. Thanks what I need!! :)

How do I get to as part of your dating pool? I have wandered around with eyes wide open but have yet to find "the one" or even a potential one. I am classy and a professional woman with all the charm and sincerity to offer. I am a little head strong but I find that a quality. Help meeeeee

Hi Patti,
I enjoy watching your show. I'm 29 and I just got out of a 10th month relationship with the man of my dreams. He said he sees my as a best friend but I know I've been very negative toward myself. Been depressed about my job and family situation so my negativity drove him away. Do you have any advice you can give to bring him back.

Hi Patty,
First of all..I think you are awesome and I love how you call the guys on their BS! I also agree with the fact that if you are not planning on having kids there's no reason to rush to marraige. I am 42 and I am dating a 47 yr old divorced guy with two grown kids. We have been dating for 7 months and all of my friends and family think I should be putting the pressure on to get engaged. He just started working again after being unemployed for a few months so I'm not sure if it's the right time..What do you think?

OMG! Do you realized how clearly bias remarks you made about the Gay Community. Clearly you have no close friends that are Gay .... acquaintance maybe, but friends...not! You generalize and came across insincere. If you hear nothing else pleassse stop saying "I love the Gays" and "the Gays" and on and on! Your not Kathy Griffin nor as cool & hip as you think. I bet you say my best friend is black too?

That is my question too. It clearly says on Brie's website she opens for Anthony's Vegas show. So either they knew each other before OR they definitely saw each other after. Either way...seems like the show is fake, fake, fake.

Hi Patti,

I am 55 years old woman from Japan. I came from a very successful business family so that my up bringing is a upper class society. It is very difficult for me to find an appropriate American man who is from a upper class or even upper middle class for me. As you always say, men in theri 50s in LA go for women in their 20s. And I don't understand how they can date such a young age woman who has nothing in common, the generation gap, life experience, no future planning - the outcome of 20 years later for a middle age young woman taking care of an old man? Anyhow, I am looking for some men who have some nice money like I do (my average spending a month is $5000-,#10,000) and have some commonsense of looking at the women's inner beauty and who love classical music. ( I love playing piano myself so I even bought $80,000 grand piano for myself) Also I have finished my Ph.D. In education so I do have some brain to think about. I had dated some men who are so low in terms of their finance and sophistication. Maybe I am asking too much from men, but I feel even ashamed of myself if I have to go to so low income men with no sophistication. I can not even intruduce some men to my family in Japan, if he is so low or cheap, so that I have to pay for his food at the beautiful restaurant. Aren't there any men who is rich as I am and sophisticated as I am here in LA? How can I find them? Am I dreaming impossible dream as a colored woman?

For years I have found that I enjoy on the old boob tube and then you came along. I am 62 and have found little to compare with your show entertainment wise. Are these men you have on your show for real? If so they know little about women on the most part. It is no wonder that they have not found anyone. I felt sorry most of all for Alanna because of the goober that picked that lady for a date what a creep. I did notice that he wore the same clothing at the mixer that he wore on his date. The woman deserved better than that. I do not worry to much about the men you bring on the show but you have a knack of bringing on some real goobers which are the enertainment part of your show. Just goes to show jusy can get you a date just once. I do not agree that short men have a problem with getting dates. I am 5ft 7in short and have never had a problem with dates always had a full book. I have been marriwd to the same woman for over 30 years she is 5ft 11in tall. Go figure. I look foreward to more of your shows.

A little confused. At the end of the show, you said Anthony and Brie never see each other again, yet she's the opening act of the show. Did they really know each other prior to the filming or did she join his show after the fact?

I have a response for all the negative viewpoints from the gay community: As the mother of a gay son, I think Patti delivered the right show and the right approach for gay relationship building. My son is a believer in "no casual sex." Commitment is what it takes, regardless of how long it lasts. And kudos to Patti for having the guts to allow her gay couple to kiss on camera. Right on!

05/08/2009 - 8:01am
Victoria

Hello Patti: I've watched several episodes, including your matching gays last night, and have really found your approach to matchmaking right on! It's about bringing people who have qualities that might make the right match together and then having them relate until they know whether love is right or not. As the mother of a gay son, I also appreciated your approach. Pity he wasn't around to comment.

Here's my issue: why is every woman under 30? I am 55 but look 45 my friends tell me, I am educated, traveled, speak five languages and can't seem to find a man of any value where I live (SW Florida). I'm looking for someone of substance with whom to spend the rest of my life, and yes, it takes money. Wouldn't anyone like to see a program about great 60 year old men who seek fab mature women rather than 30-year-old bimbos with fake boobs? If you decide to play matchmaker for the older, widowed or divorced millionnaire set, let me know!

The only advice she has is to wear a push up bra and high heels. She doesn't vet the girls - that would require work and skill.

Hello Patti,
first of all let me say I absolutely love you and your show. I think you are brilliant!!! I am a 24 year gay male and I live in Miami. I went to college, have a career, people say I am an attractive guy but somehow it is extremely hard to find someone to even go on a date with. I tend to go for someone with the same traits that I have and make it a nice date but most guys want to have sex and never call you again. What am I doing wrong? How can I meet quality men? Sometimes I wonder if I am not using the right venues such as the internet to meet people. Patti, please help me..... :-)

Hi Patti, I have to say I have never been a TV watcher; however, your show has me hooked.

I'm 46 years old, very attractive, successful, but with a 7-year old daughter. I wouldn't trade her for the world, but I can't even seem to get anyone to acknowledge my profile on these dating sites. It seems as if most of the men who do respond are losers who own nothing.

Any suggestions?

Hi Patti,
Love the show, so fun to watch and you're hilarious. I love how you're a straight talker. My question is so far I've seen two "millionares" on the show that look really familiar. Shauna and one other I've seen on other reality shows like Split Ends. Out of all the millionares in the country that use your service, are some of them using the show to promote themselves and their business on as many of these shows as possible. Kind of gives the show a disingenuous tone.

Patti I think you're the coolest women I've ever seen. What you do is so cool! And because I think you're awesome I thought I'd let you know of the people whom you get at castings for your millionares. The latest millionaire show aired, the guy CJ [the model] whom was paired with Farrah for Desitiny's umm that guy is a liar. He was on the tyra show talking about how he's a player and stuff and also that guy is probably there for exposure because he was on a show Tyra Banks did called Beauty or something like that on ABC. It was about finding the most beautiful people inside and out.

Also there was this other girl who was like a satanist remember she was black and she had a ring on every inch of her face I can't remember what episode this was but she was on that trashy ass show Rock of Love with Bret Michaels. I know you say you have a bs radar but you missed it with those. And Lord knows how many you may have passed. I just think it's important for your business for you to be aware of these people.

Just thought I'd help. Unless this is scrippted then oops!

Dear Patti,
You have a wonderful show and I truly believe you are sincere in wanting to make a love connection. Why do you let people question your personal position on marriage? You don't ever promise marriage. You find love, and where that goes is up to the individuals. You have love. You have a match. A ring & a paper does not make a match. Don't feel pressured because of your job.
Thank you,

I'll second the comments about gay matchmaking. Patti, dear, you're simply not qualified!

Frankly, I hope our gay millionaire beds each and every one of the candidates. A gay man who won't bed a potential mate or vice versa? That's like a Cosmo without Cointreau!

That's part of gay culture, Patti. Straights call it "promiscuous" because they're not in on the fun. Save your judgments for someone else.

With all due respect to your three generations of matchmaking, Patti, you have no experience as a gay matchmaker. It doesn't wash with this gay viewer:

1. Your clip ("I love the gays!") comes across as an act. I've a bit more experience with this aspect of gaydar than you do. I can read it a mile away. I'm glad you're supportive of the gay community, but a straight businesswoman shouting it from the rooftops comes across as about as genuine as the GOP having a black chairman.

2. The "no sex" rule. Again, you've no frame of reference. A straight woman dictating sex rules for gay men? And perhaps we should consult the Pope on condoms? How dare you apply your limited heterosexual standards to gay relationships! Nor do I appreciate your assistant's comments about bathhouses and that, "...they're not all promiscuous." Frankly, I don't give a damn what any straight person thinks of "those people's" sexual habits. Sounds like Bush referring to NAACP members as "you people."

In short, you'd be doing the gay community a huge favor by staying out of gay matchmaking, acknowleging you're not qualified to do it but absolutely support our right to marry.

I have a question. I'm a 21 year old guy with a disability(very mild, an awkward walk really). I'm curious how to bring it up on a date or just for the first time. It's an awkward topic for so many people, but especially on a date. I know you're especially big on not opening skeletons or anything but it's there and hard to ignore. I don't want the person to feel like I'm hiding something important from them or totally in denial. I also don't want to go overboard in explaining, at least not until we get to know each other better, you know?

I like you show its funny and intriguing to see so many people trying to get with millionaires. I am a M but not in the USA but in the Caribbean, and would like to meet another M female. Characteristic, no blond, who loves swimming or water, exotic fruits and food and especially with a brain. I have a resort in the Caribbean and plan to expand. I am polyglot.
Best Regards to your team.

Have a good week.

Hi Patti and crew!
I have watched your show since it started and I am actually not even writing for myself, but rather for my mom. She has been single for about 20 years. She is now 48 years old and the most caring, giving, and strong person I think I will ever know. She raised my brother and me by herself and has not been on a date in, forever. I am currently 23 (also single) and my brother 25, so we have been out of the house for about 6 years now and I think she needs to go out and date! What advice would you have for her? She thinks that there is no one out there and the ones that are single want the younger ladies! She has said that she is open to dating but thinks there are limitations of what "type" of men live in her city.
Sorry for the inconvenience and I appreciate your time (also understand you are busy and may not be able to answer).

Thank you, you all do a job that I think everyone should appreciate.

HI Patti,
So I'm 27 and I have been in an on again off again relationship with an X NBA basketball player for 7 years. I have tried to date younger men (bball player 11 yrs older than me) with goal of getting married. ( BBall player wants kids, but no ring) but I always find myself back with him. Money has nothing to do with it I PROMISE!!! I come from a wealthy family, so I GOT MY OWN!!! I guess I'm wondering how to move on, or if I should just settle for this relationship. I just want a normal relationship... I feel if I dont move on now, I never will...IM GETTING OLDER BY THE SECOND!!!

Patti, I consider myself a very desirable woman and a good catch. I am 48 yrs old and am always told I look younger. I an Half Italian and Half Spanish (Spain) born on Halloween BOOO!!! I was married to a Dr. for 17 yrs and am well off. I am also a flight attendant for a major carrier. I am and well off but not the caliber of the millionaires you help. I only see young women on your show. What about gorgeous older women (not cougars) that want to find love as well....I see in your show that there is no place for that. BTW I am your age. I like younger men..not too young..and was wondering if you might consider me. I have long black hair...exotic features and stay in shape. This area to me is somewhat lacking in your show....BTW I LOVE, LOVE YOUR SHOW AND YOUR STYLE....Thanks for your your time If you want a pic let me know.

Hi Patti,

I just started watching your show, and am already quite intrigued. But, I don't really know your process for "scouting" women is. I live in Atlanta. I was a Sr. Loan Consultant for Washington Mutual, and quite good at it. However, a short, but near fatal,abusive relationship with a severe alcoholic, who also stalked & assaulted me in 3 different counties, led me to completely reconsider many of my life choices-including my career. I guess you could say that I found my true "calling" by going through such a horrific experience. I don't believe in surviving a painful event just to sit around talking about how bad it was. I won't settle for that in my life. The worse the event, the more I look for how I let God show me the positive things I can do with what I learned from it. I have always been an extremely compassionate person-so much so that I have had to learn to set better boundaries in order to take better care of myself, instead of expending all of my energy on other people. So, after going through the equally stressful process of the judicial system, I came through the other side realizing that I too want to help other people who have victims of violent crimes, so I am going back to school to become a Victim Witness Advocate in the DA's office. I have already volunteered at a local battered women's apartment community, offering them emotional support & counsel, as my story was on the news and resulted in some of the most severe internal injuries most of these women have heard of first hand (no I'm not disfigured-thank God), and support to any women who may choose to pursue prosecution of their batterers. Sadly enough, there aren't many who want to go through the added stress. It's understandable to someone who has been through it because it is also a very painful process. That was the main reason a local TV station wanted to air my story-to hopefully show other women that the judicial process can work for them too if they will just muster up the courage to ask for help. Sadly enough, to my shock, I also had to learn, the hard way, that I was better off when I kept my secret to myself because I found that the world is not full of a lot of compassionate people,and I then had to deal with cruel bashings by those who were unable to empathize. But, I also had another skill in my bag to offer these women, since I used to do mortgages for a living. I have sat down with women individually, pulled their credit report, and taught them how to prepare to themselves to buy their own home someday-to give them a sense of independence, as to not feel like they HAVE to rely on a man to take care of them. That way, they can choose a man for the right reasons, and make wiser choices in the future. Anyway, I believe God brings women into my life that I am able to reach out to, even though I don't actually have the Criminal Justice degree yet. Which is a good thing, because after a 5 year break from any romantic relationships with men, I am ready to get back out there to find the man I deserve to be with, and share my life with. I have so much to offer, as a wife and future Mother. Those are actually my greatest life skills, above all the other talents God blessed me with. So, those would be my highest priorities in my life. I'm still one of the old fashioned one's. And, fortunately, I'm told I'm not too hard on the eyes. I am thin, 5'7, with blonde, curly hair. I must admit, the guy you had on your show named Uri is my kind of man-even though I know you thought he needed to "man up" some. I love a reserved gentleman because I tend to be on the reserved side, until I have very deep feelings for a man-which doesn't happen easily. I have to be mentally stimulated in order to be physically attracted to a man. So, if his date doesn't work out-keep me in mind. Oh, and I LOVE to salsa as well! Also, I would consider discussing being "scouted" for your show, even though I feel a little uneasy about being on television discussing my dating life. I'm sure I could get over that. I've been through far worse. Also, one of the worst relationship experiences I have had in my life, was with a multi-millionaire. Obsessing over his money actually made him miserable for himself, and even more miserable to be around-after I got to know the man behind the swooning. I think he was shocked that I broke off our engagement. I got the impression that he all women would want to be there just for his money. I don't work that way. That's only a perk that makes life a little more comfortable. My sincere interest is in a man-what kind of husband, lover and Father he could be. I'd love to hear from you & your staff!
Blessings,
Meredith

As a married woman for over 11 yrs, I'd love to smack some sense into my single friends. They say they want what my husband and I have in a relationship. I keep telling them that it starts with chemistry and mutual interests. We are so good together because we are friends and we put hard work into this marriage. People need to open their eyes and see that our expections of a permanent relationship should include those things.

Patti,
I watch your show and I was very interested in my daughter getting matched.
She is a 5'11" Jewish beauty with brown hair and brown eyes. She is very special. She has her MBA in Finance and works at NASA in Houston, Texas. She has decided to go to law school. She volunteers at the Holocaust museum in Houston, volunteers to help with cancer fund raising events and is a mentor of the Camp for All young professional team. She is ready to find a nice jewish boy. We are a very close family. Danielle has two younger sisters. Aaron my husband is from Israel and the mix between American and Israeli makes her very exotic and pretty. Where we live there is a very small jewish population.
Let us know what you think....until then we will be watching...

Patti,

I love watching the show...but I was wondering if you would be able to answer a couple of questions for me to let me know whether or not im wasting my time. I've known this guy for the past 7 years now. We dated for 6 months, but it was a long distance relationship and at the time he couldn't handle it. We broke up, he got into another relationship we stopped talking. On the ends of that relationship he called again, and we started talkin again for about 1 year. He fell off the face of the earth again and I hadn't talked to him agian until about 8 months ago; not to long after I moved back home. Now we are really good friends, more than friends, we do everything for each other like we are in a relationship; but we are only FRIENDS. Right now he says that he's not ready for a relationship, he wants to get himself in order and his things straight before he gets into another relationship. I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time waiting on him to get hiimself together? Should I move on, or should I continue to wait around for him? I do love hiim to death, and he says that he loves me too...but right now we are no more than FRIENDS. Please extend your expertise with me.

Patti,
Last month I started watching your show. Thank you for doing this. How about some advice to the guys, like the plastic surgeon doc, some pre-date advice about mixed messages -- how not to send them, what to say when the chemistry is not there, how to say it and when to say it? Loved Become Your Own Matchmaker. Do you have a guy's version? Or plans to do one? Getting divorced now after youngest child is off to college, looking for advice how to do this right and find someone for a long term relationship.

Hi Patti. :] I was just watching your show and I can honestly say I've never had a "thing" for the men on the screen until today. I am young but I am also an older soul in a sense. I'm 23 years old and looking for something of substance in a relationship but can not seem to find it with men my own age or older. Soooo my question is concerning Hatch ... :] has he found love yet? He's attractive to me, older (which is an added bonus in my book) he has a good head on his shoulders, so it seems, from the one episode but of course i know that does not tell all. I just very seriously seemed to have so much in common with him it was ridiculous. I would very much like to know about his "status." I have a myspace that you can find based on my email I think. And I'm 5'4".

thank you for your time Patti. You're show is awesome.

Dear Patti,
I'm beginning to think that I have a family curse. My Great, Great Grand-Mother died single as well as my Great Gma. My Grand Mother is now single and has no plans to remarry (she's ill) and now my Mother is single and she "will remain that way". Gee, with my past relationships it's not looking to good for myself.
What advice can you give me? I'm starting to think that I am the uncatchable fish. The fish that keeps slipping through every fisherman's hands. I just finished the book "Why men love Bitches" and it helps but I still feel like this fish is still out to sea with no hook n' bait. No matter if they're financially secure or not, it seems not work out for me. I honestly believe that there is no man for me out there. I really don't think that he exists in this lifetime. You would seriously have a case on your hands with ME. Thanks for all your advice.

Patti,

What do I do when a man calling for a first or second date puts me on hold, while he takes another call? Is that ok?

Also, I have had a problem with many men initally wanting me to call them when we haven't even been on a second or third date yet. A man once said to me "Isn't it your turn to call me?" I am not comfortable enough with them yet to call & chat or initiate a date!

I am a NYC girl in her thirties at her wits end. The men I am referring to are professional men, who should know better. However, men are used to doing nothing here while the women desperetly pursue them in every possible way.

I can't retrain them and their bad behavior makes me lose interest. What is your advice?

Hi Patti,
I have been with my bf for almost a year. Recently marriage came up when someone uncomfortably asked us when we are getting married. Before this the subject had never come up. He is 37, I am 28. We have been very serious, have traveled together, met one another's entire families, the whole nine. His response to the marriage question was, "we are still getting to know eachother." This does not sit well with me. Although I don't feel ready to walk down the isle I think that at our ages and having been together for just shy of one-year we should know if we can see this moving in that direction at the very least. (We are also way beyond getting to know each other, which was not just an awkward answer bc he reaffirmed it in a later convo.) Can you please give me your much-needed advice. He's a sweetheart but, oh btw, at this point in his last relationship he was already engaged to his now ex-wife.
I'm also up for keeping my options open as long as there is no ring on my finger. How do I join your club? I live in the area. Thank you Patti!
All My Best,
Eliza

Hey Patti,

Quick question. I've been currently dating my b/f for about 5 months now. He suddenly had an out burst where he started screaming at me due to all the stress he's been under. Although we've discussed how to solve this problem and have him handle it correctly, I'm still startled by what happened. Lately any loud noise triggers my mind into believing he's freaking out again. Basically my mind's making bad associations and is believing everything he does is an out lash of some kind. I'm thinking about leaving, but at the same time it's not fair to just leave if he's going to work at it (and has). What do you think? Thanks.

Hi Patti,

I just want to join the chorus and let you know my wife and I greatly enjoy your show. Congratulations on your success! You've hit on something elusive: your show is great television. It's extremely entertaining, often surprising, sexy, and it gives the viewer a reason to root for happiness for the matches. It's the kind of show which invites port-show analysis and debates. It's fun! And as for a TV persona, we think you're great. You're funny, shockingly candid, vulnerable and compassionate. Television has a way of exposing people- the real person is very hard to conceal, and I have to say you're one of those people who people like more with each viewing.

Best wishes to you!

Dave
