    Memorial Day

    Thank you all! mso489, my job was mainly a troubleshooter since I could come up with several plausible solutions on the fly, I’m fortunate the good lord gave me this ability. I think my most significant praise came from my CIO while we were at a meeting discussing Tricare delivery to Region 1 at...

    Rodrigo is a stand up seller, have had more than a few transactions with him and wouldn’t be concerned there be any shill bids on one of his auctions, it’s more than likely 2 bidders with deep pockets wanting this particular pipe, regards. banjo

    Lady pipe makers

    npod, your group is off the charts! The only way I’d have a pipe by Nanna Ivarsson would be if it fell in my lap from the heavens, I’m glad I have one by her grandfather Sixten I purchased back when I wasn’t retired. banjo
