[TheForge] Bowie`s hammer-in

Tue May 21 12:41:00 2002

Bowie,  Sounds like a good get together you have planned.  My schedule has
me in Wisconsin helping the ABANA set up crew from 5/31 to 6/11..........so
I won't be making this one.  :-)
        I'd like to get together with Bob Bordeaux some day and make one of
these knife confrences with him, he's into it big time - I'm just curious.
