THEN I went back for SECONDS!!!! and about 15 more shrimp. . . and 9 cookies. . 6 of which I gave away to other people. I even got a sampler plate from Pat Hartness himself before they started actually serving food, which I took some off of, and then he passed it into the crowd for everyone to get a tease of the BBQ. I'm standing there waiting, and here comes Pat, with this plate of BBQ. . sees me and says "Here Kris, try some of this BBQ, and gives me some. . He seems to keep remembering my name for some odd reason. . perhaps it was that long day, a few years ago, when I helped plant a lot of that grass on the hill that everyone now enjoys and camps on. 8 hours in the saddle of a tractor, pulling a seed planter, while Pat was discing and smoothing the area I was supposed to plant. But, perhaps it's because, at the end of every Joe Nall, I get him off to the side and tell him "Thank You, Pat" personally, and shake his hand.

So. . your angst about my location in the line is because????

Sorry Craven. Before you get told i helped Kris W. He was trying to start his plane with no restraint. I didn't want to see it get buried in his chest. But i didn't know it was Kris till afterwards though.

yeah, but we got it all fixed, and he helped me. . AGAIN. . and got it running, and then he got to watch the Frenzy fly a bit. What else is the FG brotherhood for, anyway?

Actually, it was the external pump line and the fuel line that got crossed. . so many nipples. . so little time
