KIDDING!

 

There's still more confirmations in the kicker, so we're looking at the first part of next week to commence shipping.

 

No worries though, as I said before, your patience will be rewarded with one of our best selections yet!

 

And I may (no promises here!) throw in a surprise twist or two before your ARCS arrive...

Don't mean to be tedious, but any clue as to when (approximately) the ARCs will ship? Just kinda wondering when to start stalking the UPS truck.  :smileywink:

Your GPS coordinates don't ring a bell, Vtc.

 

What mall are you refering to?

Ah, you mean White Plains. I'm not in White Plains often. Although in the bad old days I was known to hang my hat in a saloon or two there.

Paul,

I just had a vision of you sauntering through the swinging doors and tossing your hat on the bar. Back in the bad old days of course.

Now try to envision that same scenario in the modern day city of White Plains. My getup and saunter provoked many a stare -- not to mention a few Spur scratched floors.

Yikes!  I hate those spur scratched floors. Do you saunterers realize how many pounds of peanut shells and sawdust it takes to cover up thos scratches? Well, just think of 52 elephants!

 

Seriously Paul, thanks for all you information and updates and you wonderful sense of humor. Its part of what makes this club great.

Hey Gang,

 

We're still on target for the ARCs to ship to you next week. I'll pass along the exact day(s) of shipping when I hear back from my fleet of carrier pigeons.

 

Have a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day to everyone who qualifies!

Re: News, Schedules, & Updates

Okay Paul, I have figured out one twist.  You fired the little brown fairies in the big brown trucks and hired a load of carrier pigeons.  I hope they arrive on time!!:smileywink:

 

Do you know how much we appreciate all the info and your humor AND the fact that you've gotten Erick Setiawan to agree to be with us for most of our discussion!!  YEAH!!!!

 

Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes!!

Hopefully there will be a character for Hugh Jackman again... Ponie will no doubt be in charge of that one! :smileyvery-happy:

You got me, ClaudiaLuce, and no worries; these pigeons are good! I couldn't expense Venice pigeons, but I got the next best thing; NYC natives!
