Can't beat those amiable sources.

Thanks Bonnie. You know my next project.....the Jos A Bank Harris Tweed jacket modification will soon be in your hands. This is going to be so cool. I want to take a pic that shows the $495 price tag before you start stitching startling style scenarios.

We used to own the Mayhaw Tree business, and sold it to Robert Mitcham (HOF) who now does the jelly.

I don't eat out much, and the woman that is/used to run the kitchen put me off the one time I had breakfast there, so I have not been back.

Scott isn't one of those dour, somber, "preachy" types. He's a good, fun-loving guy, likes to play golf, and tells a good joke. If you ever run into to him, tell him "John from Los Alamos" says "hello". It'll set him to wonderin'. Then you can have all kinds of "fun" with him, eg make up a good spoof.

Feel free to use me as the butt of the joke. He'll like it even better. Tell him we were drinking tequila in a bar in Tularosa one night, got mad at each other, and you beat me up, etc. etc., or whatever you want.

Robert Mitcham!? You mean the guy who starred in "Thunder Road"?!

They seem like pretty good folks, on the phone anyway. I buy six jars at a time from them to amortize the shipping cost.

Too bad about your experience at Food Mart. I've never been in the place, but would like to go sometime. If I ever get out to Tiger, I'll run up with Scott and we'll try to find Tyger Forge, so we can drop by and get a first-hand look at that bonnet. Don't set the dogs on us.

You will not find the Forge. Not on the map. No signs. No phone. No address. No road that you can see. No way for you to get there. Robert Mitcham does not even know where it is.

It is a refuge of peace and quiet. Perchance you might hear the ringing of a hammer across the ridge, but it would have to be a chance. Even then you would not find it.

One must pass the debris of 3 old stills getting to it, yet that will not come to pass.

Well if you decide to start trying to grow some wool, let me know.

Mark... You're the man. Mysterioso just don't cut it.
