    Man where should I start?!! I would like to thank everyone for supporting our Grease Gears and Grooves on July 3rd. We tripled last years attendance, and threw down some bad ass builders, painters and bike vendors. We turned away vendors this year and ran out of room for rods. At one point I was called to the gate to see 30 some odd rods and about 60 bikes lined up to get in... Awesome!!! Shit the streets were already filled by then. Like I said boys we have out done ourselves this year. All the web attention is awesome, the Full Throttle Army is building stronger and stronger and yes we have imitators but when you are on top everyone wants a piece!! Hot Rods n Harleys, the real deal Grease Gears and Grooves.com. I would like to thank Brad Fink/Iron Age Tattoo, Chip Chopper Schloss/Atomic Cowboy and Dave Aholt/PBR for everything that was done to keep our vision alive! It looks like we are already planning Grease Gears and Grooves for 2011. Thank you again to everyone that attended. I cant forget to give big shout outs to Darren/Liquid Illusions, Bill/Creative Customs, Brian/Black Sunshine Customs, Cap/C&S Cycle, Rod/Stripped Down Cycles, Eric/Outlaw Kustoms and Greg/Gateway BMW. These fellas made this show!!

    You can see these boys and others at the Lake Of The Ozarks Bikefest 2010 September 16th-19th at the Toad Cove Full Throttle Compound. Things are just exploding around the lake. There will be plenty for everyone to do this year. The Toad Cove & Full Throttle Magazine will put on another Bad Ass party again this year! www.LakeofTheOzarksBikefest.com for more info. The Lake of The Ozarks Bikefest is growing ever more rapidly and we have chosen our direction to ensure the level of intensity keeps growing year after year.

    july 2010 HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY TO

    ALL!!!!! Damn here it is July already the older we get the faster time flies by.

    Well I took a ride with my dad last month down to Winona MO. For those of you not familiar with this little town in southern Missouri, dont worry there is not a rally or a party you missed we were just visiting a friend. The point Im getting at is, unless you travel around this state a lot on the back

    roads you really forget about how nice a ride it is to be on them. We took hwy 30 to hwy 44 down to hwy 19 thats the Cuba MO Exit and then hwy 19 runs all the way down to Winona. Well for those of you who are looking for a nice day trip hwy 19 is a wonderful ride, its sweeping curves and hills and valleys and rivers and creeks and some straight a ways has everything to offer for a good ride even some watering holes if you know what I mean. We visited for a couple hours and then headed home which we took a different route we took hwy 160 to Van Buren MO. Then we took hwy D to hwy 21. I recommend Hwy D its a cut off over to hwy 21 but its worth it, very scenic and not a lot of traffic, only about 20 miles till hwy 21. We then road hwy 21 to another cut off hwy N. This road brings you back to 21 but not until you go through Johnson Shut Ins State park and again its a nice ride across it back to hwy 21. And then we shot straight up till we split up in Desoto and went our separate ways back home. Its close to 300 miles so you would need to get an early start and depending on the number of stops you make its an easy day ride you will enjoy.

    Well as always something new happened to me that have never happened before in more than 20 years of riding, and I must say it scared the crap out of me. As we were heading down hwy 19, my dad leading on his trike and we were on a straight away so I could see past him , so as we are cruising and just catching the wind relaxing, all of the sudden a BIG BLACK ball came rolling out behind the old mans trike. Remember I could see past him and there was nothing on the road so it surprised the F$#@ out of me, and just my luck, a car was heading at me in the other lane so I didnt have a lot of room to swerve out of the way so needless to say I had to stay in my lane and hit this BIG BLACK ball. So as I got closer I could see it was a black snake, son of a bitch had to be 8 ft long! It must have been stretched out across the road and on that black top highway, and being it was a black snake it blended in perfectly with the road. I must not have hit it completely because I didnt feel it under the bike. But it was a new one on me.

    Also made it over to Big St. Charles Harley Davidson and just like last month it was a blast so if you can make it out there you wont be disappointed if you like ICE COLD BEER, BEAUTIFUL WOMEN , both on stage and in the crowd , and awesome wings from HOT SHOTS and some of their women as well. The burnout contest again was awesome.

    Well thats all for this month

    REMEMBER KEEP THE SHINEY SIDE UP AND THE RUBBER SIDE DOWN!!!!!!

    A FULL THROTTLE 3 PART FEATUREFebruary 15, 2010 - I started preparing for my trip a month early. Jason from

    C&S put a new 6 speed tranny on, later that became very valuable. It boasted my mileage up to 40 45 mpg. In Mexico, this gave me the distance I needed to reach the next stop. Next Jason installed a Recluse Pro Start clutch. This gave me 5 times more control when slamming, unexpectedly into pot holes, 6 inch speed bumps, steel 5 inch balls and road curves.

    Jim Brady at World Cycle re-wired and soldered any connections that had potential to break. Retapped loose bolts, grounded lights, changed all fluids, tightened and checked every spoke and installed an accessory adaptor for my air pump and phone charger.

    Count down 5 days before takeoff. Hooked up 2 leather saddle bags and put on Saddleman bag on sissybar. Im ready to pack using my list I started a month ago that I constantly added and subtracted from it. After all I got 6500 miles ahead of me traveling into the abyss.

    The week of March 15th, there was a warning from the USA government for Americans not to travel to Mexico under any circumstances. I got calls from all of my family trying to stop me, but this was a ride of a life time. The opportunity was here. Im excited and my momentum was full speed ahead.

    Monday, March 22, 2010 7:30 AM. By now I had packed and unpack my bags several times. Enough is enough Im ready. Kissed my girl, Ann, and tried not to get choked up and left. It was 40 degrees and raining. Headed to Mount Vernon. On the bridge Hwy. 57 & 64 waited in the rain sure enough. Rico, the president of LAMA St. Louis Chapter, my connection pulled up. Soon several others arrived, then about 15 more from Chicago came sailing down the highway and we were off! Down 57 to Hwy. 55 on to McAllen, Texas. Before we hit the border, 25 more meet up with us from New York, New Jersey, Deltona, and Florida. We are ready to cross! You could feel the excitement and anticipation of course. These guys were veteran Latinos and I am the new kid on the block. You would think this was my 1st adventure on a bike the way I felt.

    Paper work in hand at customs wasnt very smooth. My bike being a custom chopper, not titled a Harley confused the issue on registration papers. Claudio, my interpreter, and a local resident, came to my rescue. After a lengthy explanation and some adjustments he was able to pass me thru.

    Just a couple hundred feet on the other side of the border, it was imminent you were in another country.

    Thursday, March 25, 2010 This morning we were met by riders from Mexican MC Clubs and escorted to a beautiful town San Fernando. This was so cool. We were about 50 60 strong and when we arrived, the town people were applauding, hollering, ringing bells and horns while we rode around the plaza. The towns mayor greeted us with a fiesta, all the food and drink you wanted. It was unbelievable. I was totally set back by this reception. There was 400 500 people around the plaza, even on their balconies. The mayor had a greeting of welcome. After 2 hours of activities we parted onto Tampico. So impressive, these Latinos are greeted like Robin Hood when they enter a town. They are well respected, taking pictures with everyone on their bikes, talking, laughing and buying things from the locals. Parents bring their children and take more photos with us and the bikes. The weather was sunny. The farther south we rode, the warmer it became and the roads got rougher. That afternoon, Harry who was on a bagger, hit a bad spot in the road putting the bike out of operation. Fortunately, he was alright.

    camp hopeOUT OF SORROW, A VISION

    In June of 2006, while providing support as the last vehicle in a military convoy, young Marine Christopher White was killed. An LED exploded the humvee in which Christopher and three other brave Marines were riding. All of their lives were lost. Devastated by the loss of their son, William (Mike) and Galia White envisioned a way to honor the memory of Christopher. Camp Hope is this vision. A 180 acre tract of land just outside of Farmington MO was purchased (Chris Neal Farm) with the intent of bringing disabled veterans out to enjoy the outdoors through hunting, fishing, and camaraderie with other veterans.

    The first hunt took place in 2007 and Camp Hopes dream had now become a reality. Since then, veterans have come from all over the US, many through the help of Veteran Airlift Command. They are a national network of volunteer aircraft owners and pilots who transport veterans and their families. Although these veterans come from dif-ferent places and walks of life, they share a common dilemma. They share the wounds of war. These wounds are difficult to heal. But to quote Mike White, Nature heals. So far this statement has proven to be true. Many of those who have come to Camp Hope have claimed the experience has done more for them physically and emotionally than anything else since leaving the military.

    The turkey hunt in the spring of this year coincided with Camp Hopes open house event. The event included a ribbon cutting cer-emony for two new cabins which were financed and constructed by the Eastern Missouri Laborers District Council. The two cabins are 100% wheelchair accessible. The showers, countertops, sink, and refrigerator are designed to accommodate the veterans also. They are decorated in an outfitter theme, with game mounts on the walls. Four more cabins are to be built in the future. One of these is to be funded by the National Amvet Riders, who have selected Camp Hope as their project for the year.

    The next vision of Camp Hope is to build a lodge that also will be handicap accessible. This will be a central place for all of the hunters to congregate. It will also serve as a dining room where the vets will eat their meals. The lodge has yet to be funded.

    In response to this need, the Amvets Riders of Chapter 48 in DeSoto MO will be holding their 3rd annual Camp Hope Poker Run on August 28th 2010. Sign up will be from 10 am until noon at the Amvets Post 48. Breakfast will be served during sign up. Kickstand go up at noon. There will be raffles and 50/50 drawings during the event. Upon re-turn to Post 48, there will be music in the hall and food and drinks will be available. All are welcome! Please come and show your support for this wonderful cause.

    The BIG MOUNTAIN RUNBy Gary LaBrot

    The Big mountain run! A place where home grown American builders and fabricators from the Limpnickie lot and others come to show their wares, drink, party and raise hell! The Big Mountain run starts its four day romp in Statesville North Carolina and ends at the Hiwassee Outfitters located in the Smokey Mountains of

    Tennessee.

    It kicks off Wednesday with the Gypsy run, where riders meet at

    Tilleys Harley Davidson in Statesville N C . From 9-Noon and then rolls to the Wheels trough time museum in Maggie Valley.

    Youll head out Thursday morning from Maggie Valley and head to the summit of the Dragon for eats at The Punkin Center. When your belly is full youll wind back down on the Dragons spine and take Hwy 315 toward the Hiwassee Outfitters where youll spend the final two days of the BMR!

    This is where Ive joined the fray for the past two years. When you near Hiwassee Outfitters the road begins to curve and dip as the beautiful surroundings of the Smokeys engulf you. Its a place that pulls you away from all the buzz and tension of the city, its just you and good friends weaving through sun splashed roads that swoop and wind past sparkling lakes and rivers. The serenity begins to fade when the familiar train trestle at the Outfitters entrance appears around the bend. For you know as soon as you pass beneath it BMR is about to kick your ass!

    Back yard builds of all types litter the camp ground. Smoke from camp fires hang in the air and mix with those from BBQ grills. Tents and trailers form the Limpnickie Lot. This is where the hugs and smiles from old friends greet you and the first cold beer meets your hand. From then on its riding drinking and bullshitting deep into the night where Great bands of all genres bring sounds that reverberate off the mountain side and are accented by the wrap of knucks, pans, shovels, flat heads and ricers of all types. Final Drive and Arclight were two of my favorites, but all the bands killed it! Among the booze hardcore, canon blasts (yes I said canon blasts biker games and revelry, I couldnt help but think back to some of the people I had seen and meet along the way. People that seemed laid back and free of the hard lined structure that binds most of us in todays gotta have it now world. The defining moment was when I rode alone to get gas. It was at the base of a hill, at a small gas station that I pulled up to with 70s style gas pumps. The kind that still has white numbers that turn and click as you fill up. I walked from my bike and went inside. I said to the old man behind the counter, I want 5 dollars on pump 1 as I handed him the money he paused and looked me in the eye. Then slowly said...now why in hell would you pay for somethin ya aint got yet son? Come to BMR!... and find fun, friends and good times....hell, you might even find yourself.

Lots of people have taken the phrase fight for your right to party to heart but Number 9 Hard seems to have tattooed it on their skulls.

(Courtney from Mid West Ska Moment) Currently signed to SBS Records out of Cleveland, Ohio - they have released a 7 inch vinyl split record Split this Shit with Antiseptic and there full length CD All Lubed Up and Ready to Go in 2009. I bet these guys are fun to party with! All the songs are great, so grab this record, grab a beer and start a pit in your living room and watch out for the bass to the face! (Jethrobot @ Mass Movement Magazine) Their CD along with their 7 inch record is available internationally through iTunes, Interpunk, and Angry Young and Poor to name a few.

    After a few years of small mid-west tours, this year in June and July they will be heading out on a US Tour going out west to California.

    The band Sd But Tre exists since the year of 2006. They started at the garret in the house of their guitar player. At this time, there was another manning like today. Ricky, who plays the bass, came to them in 2007. She started playing bass only a few weeks before their first concert! In the end of 2008, the singer left the band, so they conducted an open practice to find a new singer. In April 2009, Thomas came in as the new singer and they developed their music with references to friendship and solidarity.

    In August 2009, they had their first concert and filmed the show. With this material, they produced their first live-demo-CD. 100 copies were made completely DIY by the band, Three months later they stood in an actual studio to take on their official studio demo CD called Demuh. This CD will be available the end of April 2010 and is limited to 1000 copies.

    In the near future they are to record more songs for various underground samplers.

    Sd but Tre wants to play with other bands and wants to rock the people and the american underground charts.

    Alright, so youre in the market for a paintjob and dont know where to start. Maybe a simple stripe here or there just for now maybe a full on custom paintjob with numerous colors... maybe just something a little cooler than what everybody else has. Youve already scoured thousands of pages of Google Images and bike builders sites and catalogs for ideas. What the hell do you do now?

    Well, we happened to stop in at a little shop just across the river in Belleville IL called Sprengels In-novative Kustoms. A few people had been talking about a guy in Belleville that was doing some really bitchin paint work so we had to go see what this dude was all about. When we walked in the shop and saw all the artwork and tanks hanging on the walls we knew this guy was no joke. The man in the shop behind all the paint is Jason Sprengel.

    After checking out the shop for a while, looking at all the projects Jason has going on, and talking about what all he had done in the past, we were definitely impressed. Jason showed us pic-tures and told stories of all the cool paintjobs that he has done. For someone that is only 25, this guy has done some really impressive jobs and is definitely headed in the right direction. With a client list including some really big names and a portfolio even bigger it was ap-parent why the shop was growing rapidly. We learned that Jason has done paintwork for such names as Jesse James, Charlie Daniels, Ted Nugent, Carrie Underwood, Paul Shafer Motorsports, Heil Sound, and many more. With some of his work ending up in magazines, on TV shows and taking home numerous awards it is no wonder why Jason is making quite a name for himself.

    When we asked Jason what all he had painted, his laugh-ing response was what havent I painted! His portfolio included anything from bikes to cars, busses to helmets, monster trucks to microphones, and anything in between. Most of Jasons work was

    tailored to the biking community with some killer trucks and cars mixed in for good measure. From start to finish he does all of his prep, artwork, colors, airbrushing, pin-striping, factory repairs, and finish work all in-house. We also had to ask how long he had been

    doing this to get to where he is now. I have been doing this for going on about eight years now. Even in

    high school I was working at a body shop in my hometown of Chester IL just to learn

    from guys in the industry and get a start.

    Even though Jason knew he wanted to take his passion of

    art and design and take it to a whole new level he knew

    he had to start some-where. After graduating high school in the little town of Chester he left everything behind and went to WyoTech in Laramie, Wyoming. After a year of hard work and some ex-perience under his belt moved back to Chester and started a small business out of his garage. This didnt last long and he grew into a bigger shop in Chester where he stayed for about 3 years. When that

    shop just wouldnt cut it anymore he decided

    to move to his current shop in Belleville where

    he has been for the last 4 years or so. I cant wait to

    see where the road takes me next. I have been so fortunate

    to get where I am now and Im so thankful to everyone thats

    helped me get where I am today.

    Even with a huge list of past clients, current projects piling up in the shop, phones

    ringing off the hook, and a schedule that we have no idea how he fits everything into, Jason enjoyed taking

    the time to let us check out the shop and share some cool stories. We are stoked to see a guy in the industry so passionate about what he is doing and so into the whole lifestyle, but yet personal enough that he will take the time to hang with anybody. We feel like Jason is a definite asset to the biking community and we cant wait to see where he will go from here. Be sure to look him up at the next event, catch him at a show, or go check the shop out to see what he can do for you!

    Arkansas is known as the Natural State for a reason. Large areas of pristine wilderness still exist. Rivers still flow and the twisty roads that are perfect for motorcycles havent been paved over with interstates. Recently I was invited to ride to Hawksbill Crag by a friend who has a GPS and knows how to use it. Our route would include scenic byways, national forest, natural springs, wild rivers, a ferry ride across Bull Shoals Lake, the highest point in Arkansas and two nights of camping. All joined by roads that rival The Tail of the Dragon.

    Hawksbill Crag involves a three mile round trip hike at the end of six miles of a very rough gravel road. Most of which is straight up at an alarming angle. On a touring bike, keep it in first gear and do not stop, as traction is uncertain at times. There are no guard rails, pavement, or wheelchair ramps on this excursion. In April a Kansas man fell to his death on the hike, so be careful and dont get too close to the edge.

    Thanks to Bill Madole for a well planned and challenging tour as always.

    Last year was a big year for Bike Nights. They were popping up everyplace and all were fun to attend. This year there are even more and while all are a good time, Hot Summer Bike Nights seems to be standing out from the others. When we told people what we were going to do, and where we were going to do it, a lot of those people laughed and said it would never work. A Bike Night at of all places, The Pasta House located in Fairview Heights Illinois. We felt the setting was perfect. Plenty of parking, shade, a very nice semi covered deck and plenty of outdoor seating. Not to mention some really great food. A meeting of the minds was called and a great team was formed. Full Throttle Mag, Thunder Alley, Thunder Roads Mag, Frieze Harley Davidson, Chick Fritz Dist, all teamed up with The Pasta House and set this baby in motion. Frank, owner of this Pasta House location and a rider himself, set up some great deals on food such as a choice of ten full meals for $9.99, half price on all appetizers, and together with Chick Fritz Dist $2 16oz bottles on Coors Lite and Miller Lite products. The good people of Frieze HD would always set up and be on hand mingling with the crowd as well as Jerry and Tracy of Full Throttle Midwest, Dennis and Stacey of Thunder Roads, and Tony and the boys from Thunder Alley. Killer tunes from DJ Diamond Dave and Raizilla would be dished out each Thursday as well as several vendors on hand each week

    We launched Hot Summer Bike Nights this spring and thanks to all of you, the attendance has blown us all away. Aside from rain days we have never had less than 200 bikes and at times have had over 400 in a night. This is also a child friendly Bike Night and we have seen many families come out and join in on the fun. With attendance like this, we wanted to be able to give back so activities such as a Bike Show with Trophies, contests, and games were added along with 50/50 pots that always average over $100. Jerry and Tracy of FTM have given away several $50-$100 Frieze HD gift cards, as well as many T-shirts. In fact, there are always freebies of some kind at this Bike Night and why not? You support all of us, so why shouldnt we support you back? Starting in July, live bands will be added and as the summer rolls on, ya just never know what else.

    We are already planning out one hell of a customer appreciation party for the end of the summer, so stay tuned for that. Everyone involved in this bike night would like to thank all of you for your incredible show of support, and praise. People are calling this the best bike night in the region by far. We just call it one hell of a good time with all of you, and we are going to keep making it better. To keep up to date with Hot Summer Bike Nights, and see weekly photos, find us on Facebook and come out each and every Thursday from 6-10pm at the Fairview Heights Pasta House. Come see what everyone is talking about!

    Let me start off by saying that I would never disagree with our democratic system that allows us to decide if we need a helmet law. 21 years of military service, fighting for our free democratic society allows me to have that opinion. However, this does not preclude me from sharing essential information that could save your life. Some may argue that helmets are ineffective. Thats why you see professionals on the track without helmets...not likely.

    I have a collection of motorcycle helmets in my office. I call it the motorcycle helmet grave yard. Each helmet in this strange collection proved itself invaluable by performing flawlessly when put to the test in a real world situation. Each one has a story that goes with it. These true stories were told to me by the person whos head was in the helmet at the time of their crash. Ill share one of these stories with you if you dare to continue reading.

    Big Stan was an avid biker in his 40s with a small amount of social skill and looks that sent the girls running... away. An on-line international dating service would be his only chance to use his two up seat. He finally met a gorgeous woman named Darla from Australia. He coaxed her into flying to the U.S. to ride with him to Sturgis. Once Darla arrived, Stan took her to the motorcycle dealership and outfitted her with a helmet even though their path of travel did not require it. Not to be out done, she returned the favor. It was an awesome ride until a gator flew off of an 18 wheeler and knocked their bike down at highway speeds. Big Stan suffered serious bumps, cuts and bruises. Darla suffered the same with the addition of a subdural hematoma (bleeding in the brain). Her helmet was cracked and its polystyrene material was compressed. Stans helmet suffered damage and he walked away from the crash. Darla stayed in the hospital for a couple of nights with Stan by her side and retired to his home for a week of recovery before she was allowed to fly home. Big Stan dropped off the helmets to my office and introduced me to his wife Darla... She decided to stay! The docs said that Darla would not be alive today and Stans existence would be questionable had they not been wearing helmets during the crash. Big Stans existence certainly would have been a miserable one had Darla not been wearing that helmet.

    How can anyone argue the effectiveness of a helmet or its ability to mitigate the substantial forces that a person may suffer during a crash. It has proven itself to be reliable time and time again. The cost of a helmet is mild in comparison to a casket. Consider the risk that your taking and the effect it will have on your friends and family if your loss could have been easily prevented simply by wearing a helmet. What do you have to lose?

    Four basic components work together to provide protection in the motorcycle helmet: an outer shell; an impact-absorbing liner; the comfort padding; and a no fail retention system. The outer shell is usually made from some family of fiber-reinforced composites or thermoplastics like polycarbonate. This is tough stuff, yet its designed and intended to compress when it hits anything hard. That action disperses energy from the impact before it reaches your head. Inside the shell is the important impact-absorbing liner, usually made of expanded polystyrene. This dense layer cushions and absorbs the shock as the helmet stops and your head keeps on moving. Both the shell and the liner compress if hit hard, spreading the forces of impact throughout the helmet material. The more impact-energy deflected or absorbed, the less there is of it to reach your head . Helmet shells usually delaminate or crack and break if forced to take a severe hit; this is the way a helmet acts to absorb shock. The comfort padding is the cloth layer that sits next to your head. It helps keep you comfortable and the helmet fitting snugly. This padding can usually be taken out for cleaning. The retention system, or chin strap, is very important. It is the one piece that keeps the helmet on your head in a crash. Every time you put the helmet on, fasten the strap securely.

    Helmets come in many shapes and sizes. It takes little research on the internet or through merchants (they advertise in this magazine) to determine which helmet best suits your needs and pocket book. The best helmet is the ones that provides a high level of protection, fits snugly and looks decent.

    A helmet is considered useless if it is dropped more than four feet and should be replaced every 3-5 years due to natural degradation of the impact absorbent material. Cant remember when you bought your present helmet? Check the chin strap or permanent labeling. Since 1974, all helmets must have the month and date of production stamped on it. If theres no date at all, you should definitely replace it.

    safety is the cheapest insurance !

    Mid-America Freedom RallyCombine bikers, great weather, a well organized

    rally & youve got a whole lot of fun for everyone. That is what I experienced at Buckhorn MO over the Memorial Day week-end. This was their 22nd annual event. The Freedom of Road Riders (FORR) from central Missouri, along with the help of the Pulaski Co. Shriners really know how to throw a party.

    This rally is dedicated to our brothers & sisters who have given the ultimate sacrifice, their lives, to preserve our freedom. It was an honor to attend the ceremony Sunday morning in memory of these great people.

    With over 50 acres of tent camping, you are sure to find the perfect location, whether you like being in the middle of the action or being

    more secluded. I really enjoyed the bands, such names as Kricket Alley, Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Mr. Breeze & AC/DC Tribute Hells Bells. These entertainers are guaranteed to get you up & moving with the music.

    If you like shopping or eating vendor row aims to please, with a variety of choices. If the heat starts to get to you, take a break & stop in at the Shriners bar, the A.C. feels great & the drinks are ice cold. Of course, like most rallies, you have a choice of entering the field events, going on a Poker Run or entering the Bike Show. They had a great participation in all events. There was a large crowd in attendance for the wet t-shirt contest & the gals showed their support for the Mr. Buns contest, H*%# yeh! I must say chances are there is something for most anyone. With 2900 in attendance this year they must be doing something right. This was not my first year there & hopefully it will not be my last. Thanks, Freedom Rally for a great time!

    I really enjoy hearing from all of you, keep the e-mails coming! [email protected]
