Kilroy
Is that you in your grandfather's lap?

I guess you got my check Pat?

WHAT has its paw on the lady's shoulder in the left of the photo???  :oh:

Isn't that Maude?

I think it is a fur lining on her jacket's hood.

You should be getting mine in your mail tomorrow...   :happydrinkers:

  which Lady on the left ?? 

Tom I think your right  that is Kilroy setting there on  grandpa's lap.

 And Kilroy was setting there thinking  ( When is it my turn
I know that big gift under the tree is a Vendo 81 I just know it is )

And as we can see little Kilroy was bit early by the soda machine bug.

  And Kilroy  you have to know now you are getting a quilting of America calendar :laugh:.

I think it's the Paw from this GIANT CAT... Would hate to clean that litter box!

Pat,
I'm sending out my $$$ tomorrow... just gotta find that darn checkbook, hmmm

I could say something dirty to that, but not knowing if that is family - I'll refrain!

OH that big paw   :blush:

Pat, I'll take one.

Wow I have to say our main man from England  DAVE The Bird Man And our very own Bubba (Ken) got their money in for their 2009 calendars.

  Don't wait to long you could miss out :oh:.

Glad to see the postal service has not been hit by the credit crunch..

Dave

Well Kilroy I got your check today and I was a little surprised

  Hey buddy  got you.

Thanks Leonard for the offer. My Mom is going to send the check tomorrow. Next time I am home I promise I will make some time to come see you. I will be back next June or July. This trip was so crazy. The Ohio blackout really screwed a lot up. There are a lot of things I really wanted to do that didn't get done. 3 weeks just isn't enough. Hopefully I will be home for good in the next two years.

Pat,
Finally got around to sending you a check yesterday...
Calendar looks great?
what's up with the sponsorhips? is that on every page?

Yeah, I was wondering that myself when I first saw that picture of the calendar.

Yes the sponsorship will be on every page  it was to help offset the cost of doing
the calendar we are taking a big step up from where we started last year on the
calendar and I am doing a bigger run than last year ,
There were people that ask for a calendar in Feb & Mar and even in June  and there was not any left.
so  that is why a bigger run and just so you know all I did last year was 26 calendar
and we has already pasted that number and we are not even into Dec. yet.

Pat
