"2. When Eddie was here last, in early 2009, he told me I was VERY close (and he stressed very) to my purple. He also told me I was allowed to promote to blue (otherwise I never would have done so). I've just been unable to have him back yet."
Gary, I would be willing go in half to have Eddie back out! I am willing to help you guys out in anyway. Glad to hear you are doing better! Hit me up!
