| Having a rough family situation (imminent death of one of the young ones, untreatable), and it was nice to come home from an extended trip to help and to find the catalog in the mailbox last night.
I'm waiting until this evening to open it, but it's nice to have something pleasant to look forward to, Standing O. It is very much appreciated. |

I've often wished we had done that, but then I remember that almost 40 years ago when we got married, I was in school, had no money and she had the job and was supporting me. We couldn't get credit cards except for Sears and gas stations. "My" account wouldn't have had anything in it. After things changed we never changed the system, although she set up a separate account mostly for travel, but closed it after I complained for a few years. |

The NAMM catalog has plenty of eye candy... The high end stuff looks awesome. Yet if find myself eyeballing that orange model. I've seen other pictures that shows the binding to be a cream color with a slight tinge of orange. I'd like to play one.

I've owned both a Gremlin and one of the first mini-vans so I'm not put off by something different. |

SWMBO doesn't read this site. When I introduced her to Karl over in Germany he called her "SWMBO". She asked what it meant and agreed. |

Ok, please bear with me, I have a cheap scanner, and to be able to read the pages, I had to leave the images bigger than I normally would (they printed the text in gold and white, makes it VERY difficult to scan and read), so I will post each page on a separate post, but hopefully you can see and read them.
I also copied and resized the text for each page, to help you be able to read what is on each page, I hope it works, and you are able to see the text for each page. (I would love to get my hands on the Designer for this piece....) JK
