GEEEZZZ,

I THOUGHT IT WAS APRIL OR MAY OF 1999 BUT MY LEGEND SAYS APRIL 2000. DID THE DATES GET MIXED UP DURING THE ALIEN ABDUCTION OF OUR POST COUNTS ???

I DUNNO, I'M SO DARN OLD I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I HAD FOR LUNCH.

COBRA ED AND I WENT ON SEVERAL CRUISES TOGETHER IN OUR COBRAS AND ONE DAY HE E-MAILED ME WITH CLUB COBRAS WEB SITE INFO. (I'M SURE IT WAS APRIL OR MAY OF 1999). I'VE BEEN ADDICTED EVER SINCE.

CERTAINLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME. I'VE MET SOME OF THE GREATEST GUYS IN THE WORLD (EVEN IF THEY ARE TOTALLY WHACKO) AND I LEARN MORE ABOUT COBRAS EVERYTIME I JUMP IN HERE.

IN FACT - WITHOUT CLUB COBRA - THE SPRING FLING WOULD NEVER HAVE TAKEN ON THE DIMENSION THAT IT HAS - AND WITHOUT THE DVSF THE GUYS UP HERE MIGHT NEVER HAVE GOTTEN TOGETHER TO FORM CACC. (THE CAPITAL AREA COBRA CLUB).

IT SEEMS THAT BRENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MORE SINS THAN HE CAN EVER ATONE FOR. IN FACT - TALKING ABOUT BRENT - A LOT OF GUYS DRINK RAKI AT THE FLING (IT'S BECOME A TRADITION OF SORTS) BUT BRENT IS THE ONLY PERSON I'VE EVER MET THAT ACTUALLY "LIKES THE STUFF". WE HAD TO KEEP WRESTLING WITH HIM TO GET THE BOTTLES PASSED AROUND.

IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR THE COBRA PEOPLE HANGING IN THERE WITH ME THE PAST TWO YEARS WOULD HAVE BEEN A WHOLE LOT TOUGHER.

THANKS - TO ALL OF YOU - AND,

Y'ALL HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY,

BLACKJACK
