Hey... I just call 'em like I see 'em.
Thanks for the kind words guys, it's always great to be appreciated by your peers.
As to the question about "who responded how", I am proud to say that almost every single one that I sent it to responded favorably and even increased their fees because of it.
I have to chuckle though, because a couple of them think I'm nuts and won't even look me in the eye when I see them... they skeedaddle the other way.
I saw one today (me? working on a Saturday... you GOTTA be kidding....) at an area 4-H show and he just fumed that I was getting work at twice what he charged when he sat idle.
Hey.. I have tried to be kind... help him think more of himself and encourage him to continue on the road to excellence but for some reason (maybe my deodorant???) he doesn't WANT to get it.
Hey... whatever works, I say.
And as far as the politics goes....
That the funniest thing I've heard in years!
