Yeah guys, I thought the name was kind of fitting! Sounds like Stomper has even found him a sign for his shop. That must be some kind of ommen! I am also looking forward to seeing of you guys again in the Fall, and spending a little more time getting to know you all! Now that Stomper has gotten me hooked on this forums thing, I guess I will be talking to all of you a little bit more. I might even get to know all your names before it's over! I am a horrible person with trying to remember peoples names unless I spend a bit of time with you. Once I have seen your face, I will never forget what you look like, and that I met you but, just not good with names. I even had a time remembering Teddy's name for a little while but, by the time we has spent two days of listening to Bluegrass Music together, and flapping our gums at each other, we felt like we knew each other pretty well! Carolyn (Teddy's Wife) told him at the Bluegrass Festival to leave me alone, that I might have wanted to listen to the music! I was rolling in the isles when he told me that! I was having a ball, and we talked about everything you could possibly imagine! We solved world problems, swapped stories and lies, and generally learned about each others life in general! We even battled off a terrible thunderstorm together under my umbrella! When we got ready to leave the festival, we both basically told each other not to leave until we could get each others addresses and phone numbers! Well, Teddy has never had a phone in his life, he's used them but, never had one of his own. He just doesn't see the need. We all headed for the nearest White Castle to have late supper and to exchange addresses, with the promise to meet up with each other at the same Bluegrass Festival the next year. That's how I met Teddy and his wife! It just happened that we ended up setting next to each other at a Bluegrass Festival in New Albany, Indiana, in September 2001. He is my best friend in the world, after my wife that is! Well now that I have bored you all to death, I will scoot out of here! Later!
Tom
