Hi Roy,

Thank you! In the midst of all your personal health and dog issues you still find the time and courage to keep all of us in the loop. Sure things are moven' slow, but you have to consider that the leader of the country we are focusin' on is crazier than a calf with a snootful of peyote! Lets remember MF has other irons in the fire, ( OK maybe just on the edge of the fire) but WWF is not just a one trick pony and those opportunities take up some of his thoughts.

Lets all imagine ourselves in MF's boots. On top of trying to keep himself upright in the saddle, he has all of us tuggin' on the reins and all those government agencies barkin' orders at him too. I am one of those among us who admire his efforts and continue to be amazed that all the dung he wades through dosen't drag him down. How do you think he feels at the end of each day that goes by with little or no news to report? We all have other things to distract us,.... this is what he does, all day every day.

Me?.... I like him as trailboss, and he/we are lucky to have Roy as his right hand man. Lets all just keep our own horses fed, watered and groomed so we'll all be ready for the day when the boss turns around in his saddle and yells "head 'em out" That's when the wild ride 'll begin.

Thanks again Roy, happy trails.
