(sorry for the x-post, Paul)

Theo,
I've been looking at MaxaMiniDucks.org everyday since the site went up. I love it. I'm not sure why I visit it so often, I just think it's pretty cool that my Dad has his own web-site.
The pricing on the duck tag page is a little confusing...the word "pack" for the 1 quantity makes it sound like there may be more than one tag. Cost for 1 "pack" is 3.50 "each". But for the 5 and 10, you say $14.50 "per pack" - making it seem like they are paying $14.50 x 5. Maybe you should just delete the text after the prices. It's pretty clear without those that it's 3.50 for 1, 14.50 for 5 and 25.00 for 10.
Does that make sense?

That makes a lot of sense MMG! I'll contact Rick and ask him to make the changes.

Thanks,

Theo

Actually, I respond to the name, "Grammar Queen". I hope to someday wear a crown of punctuation marks and correctly spelled words.

Are you referring to the card game? Greg is currently obsessed with the game, ever since my Mom taught us a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately, my brother Dan was in a rare mood and also wanted to learn. Therefore, I was often ousted from play if there were five people - which was OK by me, as I was currently satisfying an addiction to Sukoku puzzles. However, I must say, I have not had nearly enough practice to consider myself a Euchre Queen.

(Now that I've declared myself a grammar queen, I am compulsively checking my grammar on posts)

Hello all and seasons greetings!

I don't know if this was mentioned or cited elsewhere herein already, but I thought I'd share:


I just received today the debut issue of MC2, the "Independent American Magazine for Mini Owners," published by Car Graphic, Inc. of Bremerton, Washington.

Peter! Great find! Awesome write-up. Especially considering as the euloger didn't know the duck was a gift shop, and therefore likely had to do some research.

Big question is: where's my issue? No mail at all today. odd.

Montana

Mom and I are off to Montana tomorrow morning for my cousin's wedding on Saturday. We received the unexpected news this morning that one of my Aunts died last night - not quite as suddenly or unexpectedly as my Dad - but we are starting this trend in the family of mixing weddings with funerals.

Anyway, it's very strange to think about the fact that my Dad was supposed to be joining us on this trip - and that noone could have guessed he wouldn't be. I'm sure he'll be joining us in some way, just wish he could be there with us physically.

I love you Daddio - miss you.

So sorry about your aunt. I'm sure that's even tougher to take after the loss of your dad, Kate. Condolences to the Smith extended family everywhere. I'm sure Ed will be with you on this trip.

Sorry to hear that MMG !! - All our best wishes and condolances from the Northern Exiles in UK.

This little fella's still covering the miles with me, we've done about 6K together
so far, so he's well travelled.
