I forgot about the aeresols - first time it happened, I crapped in my drawers.
Leonard, I cannot find your email address anywhere. I think my son threw it away when he cleaned up the PC desk. Mine is harleycoopster62@gmail.com if you want to send me yours. Talk to ya later Bro.
It was Slats
Leonard, was that 218 number you trying to call. I answered, but could not hear anything.
Hey Leonard, do I ever remember you. I even asked R. C. if he had heard from you. We had some great times didn't we? I am retired and living in my hometown of El Reno, Oklahoma. I was a Locomotive Engineer and worked for many railroads. I even lived in Chicago for about 23 years. What have you been up to? My cell phone is 405-200-6424. Really good to hear from you.
Thats ok, took me some time also.
Welcome aboard!
