Dear Dennis,


          The Pantera Gods favor these characteristics in their 
followers:

1) a calm and competent demeanor in the face of adversity

2) an incredible capability for eleventh hour frenzied wrenching

3) having a Plan B


          I think you're covered!


                      Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles
