    I would also like to say thanks to Andy, Phil and everyone here at DG. It was fun, but not as easy to judge. 7 out of 10. Not bad. All did very well. It was tough sitting here wanting to comment everytime I saw a new entry. I knew I would have to wait.

    Peace.

    Hey! How come Phil gets a weeks vacation? I must have missed that one. I guess I'll just take my wife out for dinner... Do I send you the receipt Andy? :D

    No, but you (and Phil) can send me an email and you get a $40 gift cert from amazon... which you can use to purchase barbecued baby back ribs!!!

    Does it get any better than here at Dgrin??? lol3.gif

    Wow.... I've been meaning to log back on but I haven't had the chance. I'm flattered that you folks liked the shot of "Rod" the Twilight Zone Pinball machine.

    I was doing some routine maintenance on it when I realized that would be a cool shot. But to find it in such good company, well I'm simply thrilled.

    Anyway, I think I'll cast my vote for "Full Tilt". rolleyes1.gifJust kidding. They're all great shots. thumb.gif It's a tough choice.
