    Uncle Earl sounds like my kind of bloke.

    A glass raised to Mr. Shealy tonight.

    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Uncle Earl sounds like a great guy. The cool thing to do is to carry on something he thought was cool. My favorite uncle, almost like a dad, was always into having a shop to work in. He spent much time thinking about how he set up that shop. I now always give this same thought to things even though the original idea isn't something I would normally put a lot of thought into. When I do it I think of him. I feel that pays tribute to him in some sort of way. Sorry to hear.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Well, in a way your Uncle Earl's gone, but in a way, he's still here, I'd say.

    My Uncle Phill is that person in my life. Introduced me to some of the finer things in life: Polk Audio, Zappa, Hendrix, The Clash, and good beer.

    You have my condolences, George.
    Rest in peace, Mr. Shealy.

    George,

    I didn't see this till today. Sorry about your uncle. For what it's worth I think he had a pretty sharp name.
