That is a bad streak John, but don't give up. I recall this feller,,, I think his name was Wilbert Peesly, won my 5 million dollar Publishing Clearing House Sweepstakes about 40 - 42 years ago?  You can't undo that no matter how much I dwell on it....  :o :P :pray: :Doh!

Back when I was 6 years old, my dad and I went to a Rancher's Convention in Casper WY,.... and I won one of the door-prizes.  :applaud



You have no idea how much fun a 6 year-old kid can have with a 5 gallon bucket of Machine Grease :laffing,.... I had a ball greasin' up all my dad's hand tools, until he found out what I was doin'.  :o

Some folks are very protective of their beeswax! Lot's of times a person will hear, "it's none of your beeswax" and "mind your own beeswax"

Yes sir, very protective!  :pray:

Rondo, I would like to add two more Member's names to go in the hat.

Charter Member # 75 Tom Faidley (No Powder)
Charter Member # 113 Robert Hunt (Crooked Gun)

Should either of these great supports win something, please contact me for shipping information.

I just got off the phone with Crooked Gun and he was very happy and excited! He extended his "Best to all the TMA Members"....quite a guy here!

He asked me to once again pass on his thanks to Two-Steps for the knife he won "eons ago", he couldn't remember when, but did remember how nice Two Steps was when he sent it to him.

 :Doh!  Can you imagine brother Al, the original Christmas Grinch, being "nice"...just wait until Hank hears about this....lol

Are you sure Crooked Gun can actually count? Surely he lost count on the number of steps. ::)
