    Thanks again, Squirrel, for contacting James on our behalf. It was 36 degrees in Amarillo this morning, but it was warm in James's shop. Thanks James and Jonathan for everything. Your kindness will not be forgotten.

    James and Jonathon are guys I know from Drag Week. Drag Week folks tend to be big on "pay it forward"....we know we'll need help some day, too!
