    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

    Well now… ain't that just a kick in the rear! Just goes to show… ya never know. Thanx for posting that, Roger. But it's really not like an "award". You don't get a plaque or anything. I do save a screen shot of these things so someday maybe some descendant will be mucking through this stuff and come across them and they might wonder what the hell was he was thinking.

    I thought I was the only one who saved screen shots of such things! My wife says it's stupid because no one but turners know about Sawmillcreek, WoW, and the AAW sites....I don't care, I do it for a keep sake if nothing else!

    Congrats on the honor. It's a very nice piece.
