.... my young, talented and wealthy wife, the lovely Gertrude Matilda
Boater, served as a fighter pilot in Iraq in a secret program, and

additionally she served in the Clinton Cabinet as Secretary of of a
classified department of which no official records will ever see the
light of day, and

she also has made several blockbuster movies in Hollywood as a double
for Julia Roberts.

And you already know that she now has four doctoral degrees.

I'm sure you and the rest of the newsgroup will want to join me this
week in congratulating Gertrude Matilda on her life achievements,
especially since this week is the anniversary of her mother's
triumphant entrance into New York Harbor to a fireboat welcome after
crossing the Atlantic in a Bass Weejuns cardboard shoe box. The
welcome her mother received was so meaningful to Gertrude Matilda.
She gets teary eyed every time she speaks of it.
