Hi, Hey I didn't think we where ignoring you. One of the things about the saloon was to come up with new story lines and have new people help shape them. As you can see, our latest story has been the DUCK and if you look back thru the pages, it has been dancing, shooting Rudolph, and Cupid, adventures in the Hot Tub, and even some outback adventures including shooting on the range. So I think that if we have ignored you it has been by accident and we would enjoy your take on the DUCK story or anything new you can bring to the bar. If you look back at most of our craziest stories, you will see it is when we have had the most people involved and everyone enjoys it. So give us a try again Eric and let your imagination go.. Tom
