Hey Bob,

I don't know if you knew Col. Joe Krawczyk has terminal cancer. He doesn't have long, if you want to contact him.

Bob, yes we still have a Cav store, but it is a new store under different management. Not run by the association anymore.

Yep that was him, Bullard. That guy was a terror on one of his drunk nights, but I guess we were all pretty wild when we weren't in the field.

The only person I remember at the motor pool was this big ole Indian everyone called Chief. That guy could pick up a 50 gal can of 30 wt oil, but he didn't speak much.

Always up for a cold one, Bob. Give me a call when you hit town. 253-327-4062.

No Bob, not tomorrow.  Although I belong to the "waiting list" I WAS able to get two tickets for both games.  Problem is my wife who is a nurse works every other weekend and this weekend, when she is off, has to take my step son back to school.  I would liked to go this weekend but I can't make it happen - I was entitled to two tickets and there is three of us - me and two young boys (9 and 11).  It should be a good game - enjoy.
