I have had the fortune to speak to FH over the phone and understand how much efforts he takes while preparing his posts on CD. Hats off to our senior-most member (not in terms of number of post via single avatar) for his dedication and wisdom. It is a gift to be able to enter into the posters mind, gauge what information he/she is looking for, researching on his/her behalf and then posting all this in front of the board in jest. I have come across many posters who post questions with incomplete information and expect the CDs to guess the balance while providing them with relevant answers - some even lead to rude exchanges. FH has been the exception who goes beyond the question posted to dig out the information and post it for everyone to digest.
All this while dealing with health issues of his own - hope to learn to live with optimism & pride from FH. My humble toast and 3 cheers for the gentlemen - Freddie AKA FTFL AKA Full House.

From the above posts I feel Freddie/Full House/ftfl are the same person. Whatever it be I have to thank him for his guidance in the initial period after my landing. The tips given to me over the phone and on the forum has helped me to be successful. Today I am employed in a comfortable position in the largest Canadian Pharmaceutical Company.
Some time back, they used to throw in a cap and a few extra beers too in a case and
Normally at the end of each month, I pull out my baseball cap and the 24 empties and drive a few miles, get a hair cut a pack of chewing gum and a case of the brew and stash it in the cold cellar. This is once a moth ritual.
I did not tell my wifee, I sneaked out through the back door with an empty case and the cap and I charged upto the BEER STORE, bought a pack of chewing gum and sat in the Barber's chair. He was pleased to see me too, and a little early this time.
He asked me, going on a holiday Freddie, I said I am thinking about it. And as usual, the conversation always goes off on a tangent and we had a great laugh and as usual dusts me off and I pay him and slip in a stick of gum and he hands me the CAP.
I said bye and tried to put the cap on. Would not fit? So, I asked the Barber, HEY what are you trying to do, switch the CAPS?? He said No sir..
I looked in the mirror in front of him, and tried to walk out from the shop pulling the Darn Baseball, cap mumbling under my breath, these F@#$%^& Canadian desis, and the barber was perplexed with my 'portugese expletives deleted' words, which he did not know what it meant and I was stomping my feet with big thuds, like as if i was brushing the hair clippings off my pants and the jacket, as I stormed out of there... He did not know what happened and then it surely dawned on me....
THANKS GUYS.. now I know ... I have to buy a new hat and my head has grown a size bigger, and that too even after the hair cut.
You ALL made my day.
