[Leica] Nathan's PAD 23/08/2009: hard-working vendor

[glehrer at san.rr.com (Jerry Lehrer)]

Nathan.

And I thought that you would be spending this week-end down the coast to 
Valencia,
at The Formula One Grand Prix of Europe.   You might have run into Frank 
Dernie.

Much more pleasant than looking at a beach of topless beauties (he lied) 
:-)

Good work,
Jerry
