Ya know Robert, I would have thought a help wanted ad posted here stating a case of beer (or two) would be available to be shared by all those responding to said advertisement at a set date, time & location would have accomplished the same thing. :thumbs :thumbs

You could have requested from one of the SDD gods that credit be given for a Texas mod party. :sly :sly

Besides, it would have sucked big time if our last memory of our leading poster was of a couch landing on top of him. :eek:
