The Queen of Hearts seemed to enjoy the game, of course it's always been unclear what they were drinking/smoking to enjoy the game....

There is a link at Chuck's Links page to the Croquet Club, it's not like he's "coming out of the closet" or anything.

"If you give someone a program, you will frustrate them for a day;
if you teach them how to program, you will frustrate them for a lifetime."

Steve.... gee, whatever was I thinking about ... oh, I know ..its 20 degrees outside here right now and I was just jealous of thinking of Hula Boy, aka /Croquet Boy 'living it up with some kind of Hawaian (sp?) drink in one hand and his putter in the other (hand). Now, don't take that the wrong way.... :-)  {grin}

Oh, did I mention the foot of snow on the ground around me here?

John,

I am sure one day it is a putter and the next day it is a mallet.

David,
In a previous life I was in fact an announcer on the radio. Both here and in the Seattle area.
You did a damn fine job on the read. Damn fine.

David,
You COULD have simply ASKED me for my address....now I am naked to the world........ what convoluted route did you take to find THAT?

:'-(  :D 

John,
I do understand you pain. I do..... it is damned cold here to.......it's been getting down into the 70's....... I even had to put on my flannel T-Shirt and close a couple of windows........ bbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I think I typed in Chuck Burke, Maui and it came up with that on the first page. I didn't request a background check or credit history. That's next. (devil) 

By the way, did you hear back from the MEO about the EPS?

Hmmm, I didn't even see that, you have naked pictures on the WWW?

(What a way to start a rumor....)

Chuck,

That's a fair price. If they don't place the order, they obviously don't understand and/or appreciate the complexities of their one-of-a-kind order.

P.S. Sorry about the secret conversation between Chuck and I, we'll take it off-forum now. (How is that for a teaser?)

John,

I'm sure for those awaiting that answer, explains the recent increase in daily visitors. :-)
