Tom,
Oh, okay, duh. I didn't know much more about the owners of FoxPro, other than the last name Dillon.
I didn't donate the call, as far as I understand it was part of Danny's collection, and that's all I know.

I always wondered if the sounds were real...... Even back when I used tapes. Allot of the sounds I hear sound like hand calls to me (nothing against hand calls...they work). If allot of the game call sounds I hear are REAL animals then they ought to advertise it. Maybe I've missed it but I haven't seen claims of REAL animals being the source of the sounds.

I didn't know that is what happened with Danny's museum. It is good to hear that someone picked it up and is continuing with it.

Foxpro has it, I don't know if they actually bought it or Danny donated it? But, I'm sure it's been added to, in bits and pieces.

Leonard,
Charlene told me that Danny donated his museum to FoxPro, that's how I found out they had a call I made.
They already had their own museum going, and he felt like they'd do his justice by combining them.

Yes, Danny told me the same, with Charlene sitting beside him. He was optimistic, at that time. They were at the campout right after having one lung removed, and he said that he was cancer free. I think he, (maybe both) enjoyed the bullshit around the campfire and it was nice seeing him again.
He started his museum when they owned and operated the motel in Caraziso (sp) and when they moved to Walker Lake, didn't have the traffic and walk ins, etc. I think they traveled to where she was from back east, and that's when they gave the stuff to the Dillons.

This thread is legendary- lol. I have to make time later to read the entire thing. All it's missing is a Bill Martz and TA reach around. [ February 05, 2013, 01:14 PM: Message edited by: Chris S ]

So, you are the type that can't be bothered to start at the beginning? You probably cut lines, too? Ride the shoulder to get to the front and then rather than turning right, you cut in front of all the suckers that dutifully wait their turn.
Good to know, LB
edit: a "reach around"? that's a very interesting mental image. Can you sketch it for me? [ February 05, 2013, 03:01 PM: Message edited by: Leonard ]

I read the first 2 pages and then had to skip to the end to post... A mental image of the reach around should suffice. The sketch would be considered criminal. Al Gore would pursue me for high crimes and misdemeanors on his Internet. [ February 05, 2013, 06:02 PM: Message edited by: Chris S ]

Well, don't do it no more. You could miss eight or ten different off topic discussions, and look stupid, which, in your case, is less a problem.

The only thing I took away from this entire meandering cluster is;TundraWookie referring to TA as Timothy is hilarious.

I had time, so I sent you an email to the address provided. It's a very vague email...

Don't you just hate it when those emails become vague? Who's your provider, I'd bitch about it?

Vague works fine, the details are encrypted.

A vague request to send an email, deserves a vague reply.
