Here's to our Wizard!

Not only that, but he designed some pretty outrageous boats back in the day.

And one of them is for sale. I ain't got 100 bills, but if I did, I'd own it.

What???
I don't even have one of my own boats.
Where????

I'll join in the accolades. When my wife & I visited Steve last September he made us feel very welcome, was a gracious host giving us the grand tour at his fine new business establishment...

...& he was kind enough to organize a kilt night with the local Rabble as well. I've always appreciated Steve's wizened, experienced & sometimes humorous input to this forum.

And if that wasn't enough, he makes a great kilt! (And his lovely wife makes a marvelous kilt shirt, too, as the pic below illustrates.) Just wish you weren't so far away, Steve!

WARNING:

I believe you are correct, Todd, that certainly looks like Kokopelli. My brother plays the Native American flute & goes by the name of Locopelli. Part of his stage patter is that everyone has heard about his famous brother, but has anyone ever heard him play? No-o-o-o!!! He's the Milli Vanilli of the flute world!

So, my brother goes around proving that the Pelli's really can play the flute.

Phil,
It should be obvious to all that it is a calling to Mr. Ashton. Just look at the X-Marks clan badge, not just the art, but the production, order taking, distribution, and trying to keep jonesing X-Markers posted on the progress.

Genius Level

Please, guys....

I have to live with The Wizard. This is going to go to his head, and he will be insufferable!

But, he really is a great guy. He wished me such a nice happy birthday, in person....well, over Skype anyway. He reminds me very much of my father-in-law, although perhaps slimmer and handsomer. Is that a word? Well, it is now.

Be well,

Star
