    Buddy, Things seem to be looking real good for you and your team. Just retired so will be there in August to see this Flattie do it's thing !

    Hey, just a thought . . . . Being retired if you come to El Mirage, give a little warning and I will bring your crew some of my "Super Dave" approved Guacomole and chips.
