Hey folks...!

John D. · 06-04-2002, 06:34 PM

Sorry for the delay - but just walked in back from a business meeting off-site... During that time - I see Ed and Marvin made it - WELCOME!!!!

OK - a few of you have asked what the plan is - and I have to say - I DON'T KNOW..!! [img]eek.gif[/img]

My Best to each of you - and my sincerest "Thanks" without all of you - and your support and insistance that we move to this level - I never would have even thought to put this site together... My thanks for that (Hmmm - I think "thanks" for that [img]confused.gif[/img] ?)! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Thor · 06-04-2002, 06:46 PM

Thanks John for all you do! This forum is a welcome relief! I hope to see Dok here in a few days, he is a great guy and has the right attitude and desire to learn. Thor [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Edward Tinker · 06-04-2002, 07:06 PM

John, I don't know which is better, the last post posted or the oldest first?

I like to follow it with reading the first, but when the new ones get waaaaaay down on the bottom...

but I like it and see this as a boat.

a hole in the water you (you JOHN [img]biggrin.gif[/img] ) throw money into.

But thanks, although as I think about it, I started the trip to lugerforum with two Lugers and now have 4 and thats with me selling one!

[img]smile.gif[/img] oh well, the company has been pretty good, except for some snow flurries every now and then.

thanks,

ed

John D. · 06-04-2002, 09:25 PM

Well - Hi Greg!!!

Welcome!!!

There are about 12 of us (well - 11 actually - as I have 2 accounts, one for ADMIN and the other as "me" [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Anyway - feel free to post, and make comments about the Forum - as you can tell, I'm trying to get this finished up as soon as possible, and the last site I did with this technology took two weeks. This site is less then 2 days, so I'm breathing a little hard [img]wink.gif[/img]
