I just checked out the Official Job Description Manual listing for "Minions, Assorted & Various," and the Picking Blueberries portion is optional, Kate. So...I guess if it is going to cause dissention in the ranks, Marcia's Minions no longer have to pick blueberries. Seeeeeee...I'm a kind and generous SpiritGuide/ProcrastinationPriestess/Queenie! I can be MOST benevolent when I need to be. Therefore, no need to turn in your Minion Membership just yet. I rather enjoying having minioning going on whilst on road trips with you and Nicki. Makes me feel Queenly an' all! *waving regally, but kindly* Marcia (Who still has NOT planted a single thing...but who thinks having the excuse of not feeling well yesterday will get her off the hook. Going to do better today, for sure!)

As a 9 year old kid in Elk City, OK in 1950, I met Tim Holt, Fuzzy Knight & Randolph Scott who were some of my favorite cowboy movie stars that made personal appearances at a local movie theatre. And, during our town's 50th. anniversary in 1951 I met & shook hands with Jess Willard who had been the Heavyweight Boxing Champion of the World, 1915-1919. He lived in my hometown during the early days & helped lay the bricks that paved Broadway St. and are still there and "in use" now in 2006! Moving ahead several years and after I had moved to PA...my wife & I saw Richard M. Nixon as he arrived by helicopter and dined at the then-famous Bookbinder's Restaurant in Philadelphia one evening while we were eating dinner there also. Then later, during the mid-1970's, we saw "The Duke" John Wayne in New York City getting out of his limousine and greeting the gathering crowd at Rockefeller Center. Guess that's about it... LarryD

Hi tom8olvr! Unfortunately, I don't have the seeds you are looking for. Could you please, take a look at my trade list - maybe I have something interesting for you? I been looking for seeds of Kosovo and Wes and I don't need much, 10-12 of each. Please, let me know. Thank you!

Message from Gary For cottonwood468 - Should I send to the Chicago address, or the other one? The package will most likely go out on Monday. For sea_kangaroo - I need her mailing address. (She received the wrong package. But, because of her unique wish list (ones that no one else wanted) I still have about 30 wish list varieties for her. I have no idea if my email contact info is still available on Gardenweb) For pink iris - Her package will go out Monday. (and that wraps up the tomato/bean swaps, 125+ participants, 12,500+ packs of seeds) Thanks Gary
