...and I was 58 yesterday. Any chance you'll be 70 in July, Tom? We'd love to celebrate with you at Carlisle

Well, I know that's not going to happen this year -- but we'll "PhotoShop" you in to the group shot, howzat?

Dick -- I don't think we heard definitively from you yet. Is Yvonne going to let you come and play with us?

A pair of these arrived at my office today, courtesy of Jim Hamsher ("Jimbo59" on this Forum). I'm gonna buy the flocked set from Gary! Thanks Jim...

In early May, I sent off a check to Gary. I also sent a check to my air conditioning guy... Neither arrived. (*sigh*)... Fell behind a desk somewhere.

In desperation, I faxed an order to Gary -- but PayPal'd him, per his instructions. And then I got a phone call: His overseas producer of flocked weatherstrips dried up and blew away. He hasn't had them for over a year now. He bought machinery for flocking, but it takes a special glue -- and he can't get it. (*sigh*, *sigh*...)

Gary promptly refunded my PayPal, gentleman that he is. And he's sending me a catalog to boot. But, I'm not going to have the opportunity to enjoy flocked weatherstripping -- back to the two-piece, extruded moldings for me.
