    Good strategy, Jeff; he’ll be so exhausted by then you can finish him off with one punch.÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷“Swinging Haymakers” sounds like the name of a country-rock band.

    Cell phones were the death of the telegram.

    Oh dear, Jeff. Remember… Don’t be starting what you can’t finish.
