George,
You don't know how many times I pulled my hand away and just couldn't do
it.............one of the toughest decisions.......ever....its times like
these that i have to remind myself that its only a game.....for fun...you
take a chance ,,,,,and George pops a 1200 with whiskers.....you then
realize you made a big booboo.....you spend the next 10 years afraid to
make any decisions regarding pumpkins.............Hope you pull through the
Storms...its....extremely frustrating but what can you do ? Its out of our
league...brock
