Maybe we can coax Perry out of retirement and have him reproduce these catalogues, with the owner's permission of course.  Also, you've got to love the T-shirt idea. ;)

That is very neat, but, I would rather have something about cast iron. And, I know about Griswold cast aluminum. I just prefer iron.

Actually, Cheryl, I haven't been on Facebook since before Christmas, I think well before.  T shirts would be great.  And I second CB's suggestion that one be made about cast iron as well. 8-)

Hello Jim. Now as Cheryl points out negotiations have commenced. So I want to put you and your firm on retainer so that you can be in the wings with a merger agreement and an interim working agreement so that no production will be lost. I assume we will be paying your standard fees plus your choice of six pieces of cast iron with each piece not to exceed three thousand dollars in value as determined by current BB value.

Good Jim. I'm glad it sounds like something we can both get our arms around.  ;) :)
