I read the subject and thought it was a question. I'd do a lot for 
some homemade cherry pie but now I see what you are up to.
First read I thought it was an 18' cedar ladder and wow does Gene 
really want that cherry pie, glad I read that wrong.
Ok, from my point of view... when will the pie be ready?
