For those who are waiting on a string or a reply to their e-mail, I apologize.  I am stuck in a situation I never wanted or even thought about.  A very good friend of mine is in the last stages of pancreatic cancer.  Some of you have met him at different tournaments.  

Earl had to go on morphine this week to deal with the pain, and cannot be left alone.  He doesn't have anyone else to stay with him during the week, so I am.  He doesn't want to die in a hospital, so I'm going to do everything I can to keep that from happening.  I don't have acess to a computer at his house, and due to the distance between where we live I can't run back to my shop and check it on a regular basis.  I'll have my phone with me, but I can't do much right now.  

For those waiting, again I am very sorry, and if you want a refund on a string order I completely understand.  Right now I don't know how long it will be, but I can't see how he can make it much longer.  I will get the orders filled as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we'd appreciate any prayers that are offered.
