Hey Adam, Still working on that. Word is MacCurtain is retiring in January and it all depends on what happens with the 2 present chief of operations. If they stay then I doubt I'll be able to pull it off with they're approval. Doesn't mean it won't happen, just means I'll have to be more creative.

Hey Adam...I started them, but there was no real interest to keep it going, or to get it going. Kind of a one man band so to speak......

Sorry to hear about the staffing stuff. When will "checkbooks" realize what it takes to do this job.

Evryone around is having budget problems too. I guess we were firts this round, although I am still waiting for the other shoe to drop......

Be safe Brother....
