Good point, both of you.

But today the mailman pulled up at my house just as I was going back to work after lunch. I asked my wife to check and see if there was anything from the NAR. She said there *was.*

So right now I'm reminded of that scene in "The Jerk" where Steve Martin's character yells, "I'm in the phone book! *I'M SOMEBODY!*"


Or if you prefer, "NAR 86131."


Cheers,

A-hem. I think this belongs in THIS thread:
http://forums.rocketshoppe.com/show...=phone+book%27s

So, I'm 79563 and I joined in June of 2001. That's almost 7000 new members in five years. Is that a pretty good growth rate or is my math gene going spastic again?

I think the proper response here is (John Ratzenberger voice mode on):
WAY TO GO, IDAHO!

Hey Dean,

What's with the "SR?" Doesn't that just mean your "Sport Rocketry" subscription is paid up? I noticed it's about half an inch away from my NAR number... so, I'm just wondering.


Thanks, and cheers,

Darn. It just doesn't have enough syllables to sing to the tune of "867-5309." (Sorry, I mean, "Ni-Ee-Ni-I-Ine.")
