Gentlemen...and I use the term very loosely, I have somewhat of a problem. Have discussed this with Bobk a little and could not come up with a solution, so I used my unparalleled wisdom and decided to do this.....

When we first started talking about the reunion this year and I figured I was going to be there come hell or high water, I placed an order for some small trinkets that I wanted to give to my Vietnam Vet brothers at the camp out. Well at the time there were only 9 members from the site going and I ordered ten items, just in case. As I do a head count I see there may be as many as 13 or more Patriot File members going to be there.

My solution is to give the items to the first ten people who committed to be at the camp out and order more and send them in the mail to the rest afterwards. Hope this does not cause any hard feelings or anything else. Guess I should have ordered 20 in the first place.

Trav

Dont worry about it, the guys are happy just to meet you in person. On the other hand....If these trinkets are worth some money....lets say a grand or more....Then I want my damn trinket

Next week I have to make a final check the lights at Turner field prior to the opening game on Friday. The field has to be relamped every 3 years. Ever hung on a light rack 200 feet above the ground? Then we could take in opening game on Friday. I have a Turner Field gold card ID that will get me anywhere including the Broadcast booths and TV vans.

Travis : Thats good news on the divorce settlement

Sid : them stones are a pain in the back, mine were gall stones in 98' had my gall bladder removed (it looked like a bag full of marbles on the ultra-sound) hope your feeling much better after passing your's .

BTW last Saturday My truck decided to throw a right front wheel. Was catastrophic bearing failure. Found out the hard way you have no brakes when that happens (we were driving slow enough I literally drove up over the wheel,buckling the front fender and the wheel ended up denting the rear fender as it exited) the local garage is going to make some money putting the wheel back on and getting the passenger door to open.

Tonight there were lots of tornado sightings down here did anyone in the SE get hit by one nearby??

Trav! Great news on the divorce! Mine went the same way years ago, then the bitch filed bankruptcy and stuck me with everything she said she was responsible for but I was a co-signer on the credit cards. Hope this continues to go well and will see you soon!

Jerry, we got over 4 inches of rain, lots of thunder and lightning, but seemed to have missed the tornadoes. We are still under a severe storm watch this a.m. with a possibility of tornadoes and damaging winds, and coastal flooding. We already have some flooding but that's normal for the Lowcountry. Going shrimping in a minute in my front yard.
