All right gang, I'd like to formally apologize to John (aka Former Butcher) in that I just got back from the post office to mail his points.

I know I boasted several times that "I was headed to the post office", but being on the road, them rascals are hard to find open (especially in big cities like Nashville).

John: Be sure and look in the bottom of the envelope separate from the two pill bottles. There's a really "crappy" Johnstone point I threw in for good measure. I packed one point in a pill bottle and I also threw in some recent flies in the second. I hope you can use them before all your water gets hard for the winter. There'll be more headed you way.
Now, to find time for the Christmas exchange.............

Mike
