As I sit here, waiting for kidney stone surgery tomorrow, (no big deal, they rip it out, then send me home and charge about $10,000), I looked at the new Review. We don't need an illustrated standard, let's just tell every judge to look at that cover shot of Diesel. We can't ask for better movement, and a picture to show it. I was delighted to get my picture in the Review. Yes, there I am on the inside of the back cover. Well, actually, it is my computer next to Bob Dresher The Voice Of The National, but it is enough for me. We need to elect Bob of judge a national. I have sat with him for at least six years now, and he knows what he is doing, and after watching him judge, he would be great at one of our shows. I am also struck that there are no complaints, no bitching, no demands for information from the Board meeting. I suspect that is because there is nothing to yell about. We have a great president in Gail, and fantastic representation by our board. We did a good job this time. As to the kidney stone, as they say in the prune business, "This too shall pass." Evan L.
