By now it has become apparent that the January/February issue of SWIMMER has been delayed. Fear not, it is shipping now and should arrive soon. My sincere apologies to all our readers; we are working very hard to get the publication back on schedule in the next few issues. We hope you are enjoying the changes we are making to SWIMMER and, please, continue to send in your feedback and suggestions.
As always, you can contact me directly at editor@usms.org.
In CA haven't received mine yet. Maybe in the mail today? :agree:
Do you know how many exhausted ponies must run themselves almost to death to make if from Sarasota to California?
Plus I think that even the bravest of Pony Express riders are nervous about cross the Donner Pass this time of year.
I went to college at Chico State. One night after the bars closed we went to the local diner that was just packed, and there were about 14 of us. We gave our name and 14 and proceeded to wait 45 min. When the waitress called our name and said "Dave, party of 14" my brother answered and said, "No we're down to 13, we were hungry!"
To this day when we have a large group the (sick) joke is "Donner, party of 14 your table is ready."
:D

Hahahaha!
In the course of interviewing people for various articles over the years, I actually met a couple Donners once, and one Earp.
They were descendants of their respective cowboy legend namesakes.
I don't remember what I asked them, but I am pretty sure it didn't have anything to do with gun-slinging or cannibalism or, for that matter, bad restaurant service.
