Once again, color me green with envy Phil. I really miss having a club. The nearest one is a 3.5 our drive round trip.

I think I'd have had to take it home just to make the guy feel better.

I also would have snatched it up. Hey just two meetings ago we had a 2 lb. U.S. lot up on the block and people scoffed at it. Well I got it and know quite a few here that would love it. Hmm isn't it almost time for SuperBowl Squares?

Harry I wouldnt mind having some dolphin with you..even though my wife is from Holland...she doesnt eat fish !! When we go there I go for the raw salted herring and the smoked eels..the eels are expensive but I tell the guy at the markets to wrap a kilo in newspaper..which they are happy to do...mmmmma are they greasy !!
