You put a smile on my face, Max. Thank you.

My wife has agreed to put my pill case (I get migraines) in her purse. That helps.

As for the lighter, I never make excuses for it. If someone asks why I carry a lighter since I don't smoke, and I'm in polite company, I say it's great for lighting table candles that have blown out.

If the setting is more casual, I say I'm a pyromaniac while grinning maniacally. It works. <img src="images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
