Ice cream and beer mix rather nicely for a lucious taste treat of sublime palette for even the most discriminating taste buds!

Obviously you have never had any of my fine home made ice cream. Hops soda could not do it any favors.

I grew up on a farm Mary, we made homemade ice cream anytime we had family gatherings. There is nothing worse that getting stuck cranking the handle on a crappy old ice cream churner.

The numbers are competitor numbers that we assign to our data base. All scoring is done on our computer in a program that Robert Brown wrote specifically for silhouette shooting. It is done in Microsoft Access and is extremely easy to use. It does the squadding, prints the score cards and moves the shooters to different banks and relays for the four matches. The squadding is done on the screen with drag and drop features! It also keeps up with 5 and 10 in-a-row animals and all the special categories. It is available to anyone that has a desire to run a large match on a computer. It is not worth it for less than 75 shooters as it is easier to do it on the score board. Just ask Ed Jones! We ran over 175 shooters for the last 10 years and needed something that would make our jobs easier. Printing of the score cards saved about 80 man hours! Our data base of competitors is about 500 shooters and has not been purged. It has addresses, phone numbers and emails if anyone is interested. It is NOT for sale and we will share the program and data base of competitors just not our sponsor data base which is in another program.

Thought that I would post one more to get 195 before I go offline to print score cards and watch Joshua Ledette from West Lake, Louisiana on American Idol.

I would love to get more info on tent set-up. I have a heavy-duty "vendor-type" white tent with optional walls that is 10'x10'. Very heavy, and a pain to haul, especially if I bring the corner weights. Should I bring that, or would I be better off buying a cheap canopy at Walmart?
How hard is it to get space? Is it a sea of tents? Will I even be able to find a spot if we don't get there until mid-afternoon on Friday?

Heidi,
There is always the parking lot. Steiger has the roof of the clubhouse reserved for his tent as that is the oly place he thinks his will be safe. There are a mixture of tents, the real thing with the newbies is....HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PUT UP THE TENT? And can they do it without the instructions?
259, I think Ducky is taking a sabbatical. Steiger must have been chewing on his ear, as neither has called me yet this morning.

We have to keep up the pressure on him Mary... he now only has 4 more post to go and I promised myself I'd help make him do it by the end of the week.

This oughta smoke him out... True story, Baby Huey had some feelers from LSU for a partial football scholarship but he declined because he thought the colors were a bit "girlie"
