Mike,
	I love my T that I got for fathers day, and if there is anyone on this
mailing list that does not have one, then they are missing out on a
great shirt to take to the weighoffs. I want you to know, that I am
going to the World Pumpkin Confederation Weigh off in Clarence New York,
and whenI step up on the winners stand to accept the big trophy(I can
dram , cant I? ) I will be wearing the Anderson Valley T that I
purchased for basically nothing. Be proud! I support your effort!!
