[Roadsters] OT - Fall Entertainment

[John Klingman]

What a fun idea, I often exclaim it is X days to Christmas just to hear my 
co workers grumble and duck when they throw things at me, but this is a new 
level. The projectiles are because all my Christmas shopping is done and 
wrapped and stashed, 2 kids, 4 grand daughters, and a host of relatives. It 
has been 15 years, but 25 years of retail management and I am Christmas 
ready before Oct 1st. Spike was John's gift 3 yrs ago, major happy surprise!
