HA!
But Good "Old" Sandy (born 1964-07-26) was the highest-paid
actress in 2010 and 2014 [1] so perhaps she can afford to buy
really exclusive food, at least? Then again, while I'm not
always the perfect gentleman I am gentleman enough to not have
the dame pay the bill on a date... No, all of this will have
to be postponed until after my upcoming employment of the
fort-knox.el script...

This is getting too confusing...
OK, but let's stick to Sandra, I know that is an foreign
concept in your part of the world but bear with me. How old is
she? What do you get with PostgreSQL?
I get:
