I dropped in on Tom last week, and I agree his wife can take him easy.
And they have the biggest (and friendliest) damned Akita you EVER saw! 
Yeah Bob, Tokie is still laughing about your visit. He refers to you as "Brick the Tick". Nobody ever gets down on the floor and wrestles with him like you did. Most people have more sense.
Anyway, it was great to meet you and Chris, and it's too bad you couldn't stick around longer.

Thunderbrick was on his way home from California when he dropped by Fruita to pick up an amp he bought from me. Poor guy was frazzled from his whirlwind travel itinerary - all by car. He's a great guy and I'm hoping he can find his way back here some time.
