Hey AO!

I want to introduce a member of the US Army to you.

SpLaTz_20 is a member of the Iowa National Guard, currently on a year long active duty staus here in California, in support of operatons in Iraq.

I met Jeff when he came by my shop, looking for "the guy that knows about paintball" :) Seeing Clares poster on the wall, and all the stickers on my toolbox and wall-locker, I think he realized that he found him :D He already got me in trouble too. "Somebody" (guess who.....yes, Jeff did!) shot up the piles of the bridge over the river. The river is dry this time of year, so the paint just bleached out and now marks the bridge with hundreds of white spots. Well, since I'm the Pball nut at work, I GET CALLED TO THE COLONELS OFFICE! LOL "Know anything about this, Dave?" "Heck no, Sir. Shucks, I wasn't even in the area last weekend.....Sir....really!"

Payback sucks Jeff! LOL

Anyway, how about a salute to one of our fighting men of the US Army, stuck in the most gawdawful of place known to contain a military post!

HOOAH!

I'm slowly talking him into an Emag (shhhh, he doesn't know yet...), so he can relegate his Spyder to back-up status.

Tio Alberto burritos, breakfast with the killer coffee cake at Hobees, Woodstalk Pizza, reasonable drive to LA or SF, moderate weather year round.... Only thing that kept me from moving to SLO in the mid 90s was the cost of property.

Welcome aboard Splatz_20

See you on the field,

Shucks Bill, median price is only $391,000 now!

I think all the Iowans are relishing there proximity to SLO and the other towns. I guarantee they ain't got NOTHIN' like this place back home:D


BTW; you and Dawn are welcome to some BBQ anytime you visit her brother again.
