    I pictured a tall, slim, professional-looking man with sandy-brown hair and a full, but neatly trimmed beard. I also pictured you carrying around a briefcase all the time.

    I knew you wouldn't exactly be the lumberjack-type from listening to your interview during the radio halftime shows of one of the Rockets games. You sounded quite Muppet-like (not that there's anything wrong with that). I figured you'd be a little guy, clean-cut, accountant/bean-counter-type. A bit on the nerdy side, but not with a pocket-protector. The long hair blew me away completely - I never would've guessed it. Geez man, you look like you could whip a blunt out and start a party... [​IMG]

    It's kind of cool to see what people around here look like. Maybe Clutch should start a section of the board for regulars to post their pics... and then start one for irregulars like Crisco, too.

    That's still a great site, though (good work Clutch).

    That "muppet-like" quality has a lot to do with:

    1. The AM radio feed.
    2. The quality of the equipment used by the Rockets. Let's just say it isn't exactly state of the art.
    3. I'm made of felt. [​IMG]

    But seriously, Jeff Haggadorn sounds quite different in person than he does on the radio and I imagine I am no different.

    Jeff,

    Great site. I truly hope everything works out for you there.

    I actually am not surprised by the way you look. I pretty much envisioned someone just like that because your liking for music and the fact that you are (were?) in a band.

    Jeff,

    Very nicely done.

    I don't have much demand for vintage jewelry, but I did email a friend the URL and told her to check it out.

    Good Luck.... like you need it.

    ------------------

    Yeah, you look like I envisioned. Like Ace said, the clues pointed that way.

    You guys could ALL be comedians!!! Most of the design credit goes to Clutch. He did an amazing job.

    As for my photo, NO I do not do the ren fest circuit. Ha Ha Ha - he said sarcastically.

    Actually, when I was playing full time as a musician, my hair used to be down to my waist. I cut it shorter during the SOR thing just for a change. My hair has been long since I was 18, so it isn't much new to me.

    BTW: What exactly did everyone expect me to look like? I'm almost afraid to ask. [​IMG]

    Oh yeah, thanks for the compliments. My wife and I are working on getting more inventory online every day. We have thousands of pieces of jewelry so it takes time.

    I'm not sure when we'll get the secured ordering thing together. I hope we can get that done by the first part of this year. It may take us another month to six weeks to get all the jewelry online so we want to do that first.

    Again, I appreciate all the kind words.

    Oh, and Sam Cassell, I am not Jesus...my son. [​IMG]

    Cool site! Looks very clean and simple, and the prices are fairly cheap...perfect time to roll out your site for valentine's...The server is a bit on the slow side though.

    Chen: Is ClutchCity.net slow for you? They are on the same server - not the BBS, but the main page. If so, who is your ISP? I know of a few people that have had some slow server issues with cc.net and my site. Just curious. Thanks for the kind words.

    I pictured Jeff to look like he does, but with shorter, black hair.

    dc: Sorry, but these are vintage - in other words, one of a kind. Actually, you have very good taste. That set is pretty old (at least 50 years), in great shape and VERY pretty. Just send me an email and I'll give you the details.

    Chen: If you are in Austin, that is the problem. Apparently, there is some issue with Road Runner in Austin and this particular ISP. Hell, it might be Road Runner everywhere, I don't know.

    Clutch did all the CF, God bless him. [​IMG]

    "week or so ago" ... at work on a T1 too. Oh man that is so frustrating. For about 9-10 days now (I'm on Austin RoadRunner, ChenZen is on Houston Roadrunner but that doesn't explain his work's T1) all pages on our host's server are so slow they're virtuall unloadable.

    But here's the problem. They all load fine and fast for me at work, or using any other ISP. Just not on RoadRunner.

    But on RoadRunner everything else is fast, fine, etc. Smooth.... no problems. Even the trace route to cc.net comes up without glaring holes.

    I can't figure out the problem because it seems to be one point. Very strange. May be time to look for new hosting.
