Excellent, excellent job--I don't envy you the task of selecting what goes in, what doesn't, and then where to put what in which size.
Thanks so much.

The PRIOR 2 years I was the one moaning how everyone had received their calendars but me. It was like Colorado had fallen off the map.
This year I was one of the first and I was totally surprised to receive it as quickly as I did.
Bobbo and Beal....good news is that it is worth the wait. Best one yet! |

And it's also hard to beleive how many "regulars" have e-mailed me in the last week saying that they completly missed any mention of a calendar and are there any left.
Am I not doing my job promoting this thing? If I have to I'll don the coconuts and grass skirt one more time if it means getting the word out. |

Location: closely held secret | Brad, if you had promoted it any more we'd have to come over there and slap you.
It's been a sticky at the top of General Posting for nearly 3 months. I'd say you did the best you could short of sending out daily emails to all the members.
You and Steve do a great job of this EVERY time!
Thank you! |

Location: Budd Lake, NJ | Gee, Brad, the announcment to order them is the second one down on the General Postings page, and it's been promoted quite well--I don't know what more you could have done. (And leave the coconuts alone--if anyone had had a question about the whens and wherefores of the calendar, they could have PMed you about the time we start to think "calendar.")
Although, maybe an "Absolutely the Last Call to Order a Calendar" post in flashing neon capital letters might have gotten the attention of anyone who missed it this year--a consideration for next year?

I think it is more a case of procrastination than poor eyesight. |

OK, I went all the way downstairs and got them.
Great job as always guys.
Lots of nice gitters, but I have to say that I still have one favorite. The Floral Italian 335 copy, that guitar is awesome, a true relic from the 60s. Found it in the basement during the clean out. Yes Adamas #35 was the "best" guitar there but the Floral was the "coolest". |
