Way to go Tom....celebrate New Years with enthusiasm!

I couldn't be happier for you........Tom !!!! Sometimes it is real easy to get down and out when one doesn't know "where" the next paycheck is coming from, let along how much it will be. I can relate.......and hopefully in the near future "I" will be considered a "full-time" employee also.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, it has been one of the worst years. Having worked for spending money etc. since I was 9 it was a blow to the old ego that no job was to be had. Even knowing it is the worst recession in U.S. history didn't help.
Will celebrate Christmas with family and a big smile this weekend. Thank you to the TG community. Merry Christmas to everyone and a blessed New Year.

Chuck,
I sold a bow here and with some of the proceeds I sent TG a check for $100, glad I did before  it hit the fan.

[ChuckC]

I thought it was only year by year.
