I wish I could help support your effort and become a plankowner, but I dont have the cash right now. The only reason I can run my website (which will be 1 yr old soon) through netscape is because it's free. I am very limited on what I can do, because of access space but, it has still been fun. It serves my purpose, and hopefully it will help my fellow CPOs if they venture in. If I had a role model site, I guess it would be the Goat Locker. Thank you for the honor of letting me browse around. R/Joe "The NAVY Cheif" |
