    They heard about the killer deal you got on those 1C's and feel that a polo shirt (on top of that) would be overkill. They also noticed that you were hogging the sweet spot in darn near every picture so...NO SHIRT FOR YOU! NEXT!!! ;):p:D

    That's mainly why I posted it Mike. I surely want all the buds I met at PF to finally rest easy and take a load off their minds. :D

    Don't think there's going to be another Chicagoland / Illinois PF period in '08 unless we can find a host. Mike is out of country until??? Anyone else want to host a Chicagoland, Chicagoarea, Illinois Polkfest in '08?

    Hello everyone!

    Sorry guys, I have a lot going when I get back in May. Wife is due to have another baby, and the house might be under partial construction during that time period. Should be home again sometime late in the new year, maybe we can get something going then? I'll keep you guys posted...

    Mike - congrats and stay safe. I appreciate the sacrifices you are making for us all.

    Halo - I agree that we need to find a location for another Chicagoland PF. Unfortunately it's going to be late in '08 for me to have a house we could have it at. We should start thinking about locations.
