Bruce made the historic phone call to Customer Service/Production/Print Shop/Shipping Vice President Sheryl McLawhorn yesterday from Wal-Mart. When he said that his contact at Wal-Mart, Store Associate Alice, confirmed that they had two packs of the A3-4T engines left for $4.97 each, Sheryl said, "Buy them! And stop by Bojangle’s on the way back to Corporate Headquarters and pick up some of that Dirty Rice that Bill Eichelberger was talking about last year."
This part had me rolling....

So long as I can get Estes engines, one way or another, then I won't have to quit rocketry...

I will have to consult with my legal team (Beans, Gizmo, and Abby, LLC), but I think your order was released for shipment about 30 minutes before the purchase. So you should receive it in its entirety Thursday or Friday.

In all honesty, I am not that familiar with Semroc. But, if these guys are happy, I'll take it as a good thing.

I was out of rocketry for a long time...

Carl,

• If Semroc is acquiring Estes, what happens to the Estes name?
• If you're keeping the Estes name:
a) What happens to the Semroc name?
b) Will you be relocating to Penrose or will Estes be relocating?
