HOWDY!
Sorry for the long response time, but I got a new job and wasn't alive when I got home.
I can't answer everyone this time (althought N2S's and a few others cracked me up!)
I just thought I'd mention a couple of things.....
First, Satin,
I appreciate your input. When I get it, I'll get all sorts of liquids on my hands and see what happens. If it's not up to par, the handles'll go and get replaced. Thanks though! I wouldn't've thoight about testing it like that!
Now for a bitty update. Thanks for the input with the names.
When I spoke with Kim, I asked that it be named the VAMPIRE GERBIL. He wasn't crazy about it because it sounded too weird... hey, even SF MSGTs can have bad ideas.
So we decided to name it the "VG".
Let 'em ask if they don't know me.
Oh, and this is the kicker! It's gonna be in BLADE Magazine under the "What's New" section. Probably take a few months, but you KNOW I'll be posting it all over the place once it's out!!
OK, back's crumbling...
Thanks for the opinions, suggestions and laughs... I needed 'em now!
VG
