I knew that the joke had not been understood by all this morning when Nitro Bob told me I had to look out for some of these SoCal guys, there again in gest. Which I have a bad habit of doing, I forget that e-mail is not a good medium for humor. I was going to post a note explaining the joke but I was running late and I knew I could always call Matt or he would call me if he thought that I had slighted him. Ted, well he supplied the photo, so he knew what was going on. Ted thought I would be nice for everyone to see a example of a vintage racing jersey with the front pockets as had been talked about before. The "story" was my idea, so to those that I offended I apologies. John Waner Huntington Beach, CA. USA
