Yep, since this is the last Saturday of the month, it's meeting day. I was planning to go in anyway, and probably go have lunch with the IPMS guys

I totally forgot about it until Sunday afternoon. Just quit the lousy security job the night before and started in with the good company today (Monday) I needed two days to recover from the stupid 6 day work schedule old company had me on. Glad to see that No one else showed up and missed me.

Good to hear you got a job with a better company, Steve. Last Saturday in March is the 29th, maybe by then I will have completed my M3A5 conversion from the Academy M3 Lee kit. It (or at least major parts of it) now undergoing torture in my paint shop.

I am just finishing up the final tidbits of my 350 scale Yukikaze. Don't have a clue on what I'll build next but figure it to be a 35th modern tank that is foreign.....centurian, chieftan, leopard or AMX30. Just set up a real nice arrangement with Great Models. THey are having a super sale on the 350 scale Nagato and have agreed to hold one for me at the sale price for 3 or 4 weeks until my tax refund kicks in and I can afford it. I am amazed how good their service is. The other side of the coin is if I can't there is no penatty. As this is an extremely expensive kit I didn't think it would be fair for me to ask Keith to commit that kind of money to it in the hopes I'll pick it up.
