2011 Richmond Show

[e Markle]

Who's going to the CORPS show? Never been before, but I think I'll be there this time around. Just need to make more than my customary handful of pipes for a show...

[KurtHuhn]

I really, really want to go. However, my kids have an Irish dance competition scheduled at the same time - so they win.

Happens every fall.

My youngest daughter is ringing the opening bell at the NYSE.
My son is going to be come the CEO of the largest health care company.
My oldest daughter is being honored for being the "World's Best Mother".
My son in law is going to be inducted as the head of the FBI.
My daughter in law in running for a spot on the Olympic team in the 5k.
And.........my grandchildren are going to Disney World, without me.
All of this on the same weekend as Richmond.
But................guess what? I'm going to Richmond.

I hope to attend.

Anyone who lives with an 8 state region of that show is classified as a hillbilly. I don't sell pipes to hillbillies. Bruce and Rad have the hillbilly market cornered.

[RadDavis]

Simian,

I am not a hillbilly. Bruce is a hillbilly.

I am a hillwilliam. There is a large difference.

Hope this helps.

Heh heh...Rad just called Bruce fat.

I'm going!

Bringing a few of my pipes for some critiques and advice from the pros. Hope to learn alot and meet a few more pipe forum guys.

See you then!

Ahh, so I guess I can cross "Take churchwarden stems for Kurt" off my packing list then, eh?

[KurtHuhn]

Yes, unfortunately. However, if you've got them handy and are willing to mail me some, I'd be happy to haggle with you endlessly over how many, how much, and which shipping method.

Send me a PM - I needs....

[LAH]

I'll be there! This will be my first show. I plan on bring a few pieces, so some of you pros can give me some pointers.

I don't think I'm going to make it this year. Maybe next time.

Bugger the new shop! Make the trek to Richmond. It's a great show!
They allow Hillwilliam's and Hillbilly's, certainly a lowly Hoosier could make the grade.
After all, eRemarkable and Stud Marmoset will be there to greatly lower the IQ and raise the olfactory stench.

Well with the prodding of a few gents on here, I will take another look at funding and figure out a way to make it. I have always wanted to go to the Richmond show, I guess no better time than now.

Too long for a business card, but it is appealing.

I wonder if you could fit that on a stamp? nudge nudge wink wink

Alas you will all have to make do without me at the show. How will you cope? Probably quite well lol.
