Just had to share this. Hope you don't mind, Serge.

Serge called me tonight and we talked for nearly an hour! What a great thrill for me. What a fine human being. I'm jealous of all the group that got to meet at Bob's. I'm making it a quest of mine to meet Serge and as many other olfers as I can in the future. Thank you, Serge, for being. (period). Thanks to the OLF for introducing me to so many wonderful people.

I'm going to bed now, so Santa will come.

Ron

Ron and Rod, you guys make me sound bigger than life there buddies!

Ron, I had a great time with you on the phone, it was good to hear your voice and i'd say your southern accent was a delight to my ears!

Unfortunately, an emergency call rang on the pager and i had to leave quickly but we'll get another chance to share our views on the OLF and lutherie in another phone call sometime! Ron was the first one to welcome me here and i always felt good having him around as his presence is kind and reassuring, kind of like a Dad, i'm pretty sure your sons have great love and respect for the man that you are and Pam looks like an Angel, just like my wife is to me! We'll make it a point of playing guitars and banjos together in the future!Serge Poirier39076.3258564815

Are you kidding, this guy sent me the fixings for poutine! What kind of a guyw would do that for a brother?
What a Guy!
Seriously though,
Serge you are a prince among men!
In fact all of the people I have met on the OLF are sincerely the most kind and helpful people I have ever met on any forum, without exception.
This is truly a special place!
Merry Christmas all of you here at the OLF!
Cheers
