Subject: Are you applying for the job???
In reply to: Billy 's message, "Survival" on 19:05:35 02/18/07 Sun

If you will read the posts and the rules we instituted, you will see that we are looking for a promoter for the NMMA. One that will lead us into the promised land. I want to know if any of you guys are applying for the job. In other words - SHOW ME!! And I ain't even from Missouri. If you are applying send your resume to Pat. I am not trying to be smart, just stating the facts.
