My pal Ringo

[Rustyt1953]

I just received a package from Carl. Inside were; pepper bark, a Heath bar, two boxes of peppermint sticks, a tin of Scottish tea biscuits, a steel model kit of an F-22 Raptor and a very touching note.

Talk about fun! I love imaginative, playful gifts like this!

Little JR is 10 kinds of 'worked up' to get the assembly line started for the "cool shiny jet".

Carl,this has truly made my day and I thank you for that.

Gotta go. JR has his hard hat on and the shop whistle just blew.

Carl has a heart of gold!

Rusty I always told ya Carl was a class act. Really that was very thoughtful of Carl.
Just remember to keep J.R. away from the hot glue gun.

There are definitely some very fine folks on this forum and Carl is one for sure. Looking forward to you, miss Ruthie and old bear coming down this spring, should be fun. Hope it works out for everyone.

Heh heh, you could actually read my chicken-scratch? ) And for a minit thar--I had to figger out what you meant by Scottish Tea Biscuits were? but then remembered you were originally from over the pond.

The Heath Bar and Pepper Bark were what the ladies at work left me with after a visit there-I was lucky to get out alive that day.

And yer quite welcome. The twin t-shirts are next.

The Royal Family can have that place. I’ll take the F-22.

Carl's a good guy.
In fact there's lotsa generous people on this here forum.
Check this out. Today I smoked a cigar sent to me by Bill Bates, using an ashtray sent by Pawngal and thinking of grillin' when it gets warmer out and using the grilling tools sent to me by The Ringo Kid.

I also just got a book sent by Badger Matt.

Hey Rusty-I have a "Deal" for you-as its kinda expensive and they aint going to get any more of these in after the few left are sold. OK, how is yer model-builder at building two sets of WWII tanks--made of the same as that Raptor? Reason I said two sets is--my hands still shake too badly for me to attempt to try-and id like buying the last two sets. One for me-for him to build-the other for himself. They are: T-34, Tiger 1, and a Sherman tank. Three of my favorite WWII tanks-ESPECIALLY the Tiger.

These are pricey, and i have to know before they sell out-their distributor is sold out and aing getting in any more.

Carl, call me later and we'll bat it around.
