How cool is that - all the neat replies you got back. Those pictures of Dan were amazing- but I have to wonder how many times he has nicked himself when doing that !?!?! I don'tthink it would be the life for me, but I do admire those who dedicate long hours learning their crafts so they can give excitement and happiness to others.
