Been thinking a lot about you; and wondering. Can?t help thinking about you every time I visit the LUG FaceBook page there you are! Hanging upside down in fighter plane cockpit! I also think of you, and your sit ups at 80 yrs young, when I?m riding my bicycle up a hill and against the wind. Count me in on any project that you?re a part of. fond regards, George http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.imagist.com http://www.linkedin.com/imagist
