Neat, Jeff, and I'll bet JAG (Johnny) is gonna treasure it. Oh, with any luck at all I'll be sending your Wolf Bolo tie (from the St, Jude auction, curteousy of JAG) out on it's way to you tomrrow. It's all wrapped and ready to go.

well thank you uncle bernie. oh yeah i sent JAG a recon tanto. real nice blade he is going to love that thats for sure.  

Jeff,
So simple but so cool!

thanks randy    oh and welcome to the family  

The Native Americans from this area would (as a boy wanting to become a man) get up in the morning on the coldest day,remove all clothing, walk, not run, down to the river....chop a hole in the ice...dive to the bottom and feel around for an object. This object , whatever it may be, was kept private and placed in the bag as part of his "mojo" or "medicine". If memory serves correct they did this 3 or 5 times in a row. Must always walk to and from the river showing no signs of anguish.  Similar thing there?

Looks pretty goodm Jeff!

I'll be in NZ again from September on. This time for 6 months    :D
