Last update: Well, I feel like I fought this battle against the Columbiads solo. I know I speak for the silent, moral majortity here so no worries.
Sounds like a lot of good commerce was done in Columbia so hopefully the show is safe for another year and maybe I will go next year to keep these boys in line. Less good reports from Brandon, MS, but shows take time to build so support your local relic shows!
This is for Carl. As everyone here knows, I stayed home like an angel this weekend and one of my chores was to ferry a church youth group back from a White Sox game. 3 little fellas piled in my car and I asked them where they were from. They said, "Jackson, Mississippi." I said, "Oh, I was just there recently (with Carl, John, Ronnie and Jimmy and Wes was somewhere in the vicinity or so he says but we never saw him) and I also have a cousin who lives there." They asked who my cousin was and sure enough my cousin's son was one of their good playmates. Carl thinks I have a cousin in every two dog town in the Deep South and he may be right, but this is proof it is a small world indeed.
