Following a couple days of copious consumption of alcoholic beverges,
college football, and old sci-fi movies on TCM, I've tallied the current
state of the GFS2007. At present, there are 12 swappers signed up, so
there's plenty of room for more. So as not to be too picky, I even
included the reading impaired who jumped the gun & signed up before the
"official" opening.

I also pasted all of the info to a template website at
http://mysite.verizon.net/gfs2007.

So that's 12 swappers in, with 12 days to go.

...aw crap, sign me up Joe, I'll try tying something really simple. Been
fooling around with the vise and "maybe" I can tie if I lower it a bit (or
raise my chair) Don't expect much more than a hook with maybe some thread
on it. ;-)

Please put me in for Tom Littleton's "Coyote Ugly."

How big is it and how much does it weigh? I just want to make sure I send
the right size box with appropriate return postage. ;-)

Think lead, lots and lost of lead..... Actually, this is the smallest
fly I've ever tied for a swap. Will be a size 32. Sorry, typo, 32/0

If there is a spot left, I'd like to play please. I'll be tying a Gold
BeadHead Casual Dress (http://tinyurl.com/ybsuyd or
http://tinyurl.com/yk93d6), the photograhs doesn't do it justice.

well, it's generally a dry fly on a light-wire hook, but with
Frank at the vise, it may well be hefty enough to require
a hand-truck to carry a couple dozen.

let me put it this way......I have seen boxes full of a diverse range of
flies, ostensibly tied by Mr. Reid. I own, and saw Frank tie, exactly 6: 2
Rotten Bananas and 4
Fighting Craws. Six flies, total weight somewhere around the same as the
weight of a typical car battery. I let a friend use the box with the
half-dozen to anchor a decent sized sailboat.......

So, now you're going to blame the sinking of that boat on ME! Least I
gave you 10% of the salvage rights.
