Oh yeah man! If cookies are involved I'm in.;) Bruce
Yeah, I heard they're not having any more in Philly Frank. I went to a couple of them and wasn't impressed. Bruce
In this case, bigger is better.:D Bruce
I missed the Philly show so I would have more to spend for Balto...never miss one of them. From all accounts I heard, I didn't miss a lot by not...
