    Great singer, although I did yell at him at a concert once (over 20 years ago) to shut up and sing.

    Ok I think ( not looking at a calendar) that 30th is Saturday. I can come on Sunday for a couple days or whatever. If that is indeed Easter weekend. School is on break that week and I have no plans.

    We plan to be down there at least from March 30 through April 1. Maybe a couple days longer.

    BB, wow, you really are a gram weenie. Good luck with it.

    BB, surprised you wear gators. Or you do not worry about those ounces (grams) since they are on your legs instead of your back?

    ATM, so are saying most of the manufacturing was done overseas, and y'all did value services like putting them in the Made in USA bag?

    That's exactly what happens. They fooled around with the specifics somehow and the rule was wherever the product was "finished" is where it was made. So - don't believe everything you read about being made in the USA. Especially WM.
