I'm with it and I pay attention to numbers and I know by attending your fair that the rides were selling and people were having a great time as they were EVERYWHERE else this year. Please stop your hypothetical taunts because a hypothesis is only an educated guess. Give Strates and Kissel the benefit of your doubt as you should "prod" your "friends" on the committee as to where the spending versus the income really was. - the Dark Ride Artist[;)]

Sorry Guys! Pinetar , I need some help.I'm a dumb ass and i'm not very proud friend but if you'd show me , I'll post em tonight. How do I post these photos? I painted Russ's child friendly funhouse and J&J's newly rethemed Rock-n-Roll(thunderbolt). What a job that was!! I'm completly exhausted and getting ready to go back down to winter quarters to take on the old Musik Express and 1001 Nights.

You should start a new topic for the pics. It would be a shame for them to get lost in a gator topic. BTW.....where did that critter go?

I don't know where he went to but I sure do know he needs to answer Chris's questions before critisizing the wrong parties again and I dont have the priveledge of setting up the photos as a new topic because that credit goes to whoever does those things. I'm just a small contributor out here but I sure do learn much thanks to all of you!

I had the opportunity to watch darkrider do the painting on the rocknroll. that piece has been completly redone from the bottom up. galvanized supports underneath. 1st class refurb. i did not get to see it finished here as it seems chuck brought the rain with him. one day it was sunny and then the heavens opened up. it rained on the midway side but not out at the highway. piece was set up early so he could work on it but weather did not cooperate with him. he is to do the mack himi that j&j bought also and the 1001. j&j is working hard to get their equipment in A-1 shape. just taking time.

that must be a good camera to still work after taking the 41 shot. forgot we made that one. looks good chuck. i guess it was that eastern light shining down on you.
