Tim: That 1st photo is a great pony-tail shot!!! Reminds me of the days when I was in the Chicago Park District pony-tail 16 inch soft-ball league. I should take a photo of my jammed left-index finger & show everyone the results of a jammed finger from a hard brand new 16 inch Clincher. Bob Sullivan, Paul, sound familiar? Cheers, Christine
