My best bud Norm will be traveling to San Francisco Monday to have surgery, which will hopefully improve his quality of life. I would love to see the big guy (6' 4") return and run 20 miles a day again. I miss his visits, as telling me over the phone that me and my system suck is more effective in person.:p:D He will have to play his slide trombone at the next Chicago Area Polk Fest. You would see how he could kick Pankow's **** and should have been playing for Chicago all these years.

Thoughts and prayers from me, Dana and Irene Norm.

    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
