Just talked with John Oeffinger, live from Toledo, Iowa. ( Betcha didn’t know there was a Toledo in Iowa, huh?!)  Well, he and the inimitable Bob Gammage, drove back up to Iowa, from Southern Texas, at the crack of dawn New Year’s Day.  That’s about a 16 hr. drive, mind you – and I don’t think I’ve ever heard John so wired up and enjoying himself!  He and Bob  are having a blast it seems (and I’m missing it, damnit!).
