Gary said it was an anagram of Richard Evans, very clever I thought!

There is a big reason that most of you have not seen my cups. (Storage)

Sean

We don't want that to happen! You'd be in trouble!

How about sneaking us a picture of one set of C&B? Just one.

Tom

OK, I will post a few in the morning. Hell, I might even post my PF Chick Cups that were made just for me. 

Till next time,
Sean

Haven't seen those pics yet Sean 

Etienne

Yes Sean… where are those pictures? We won’t tell your wife what you have… you have kept our secrets.

Bruce

I think he's hoping we forgot!

Probably so… but I like to think that he is too busy working.

Bruce

The winner is Bruce!!!

I have been working. I have been doing a bunch a gigs lately. If I am not working I am planning at routines. I had a Library show this Sunday, and I had a blast. They said that they think they would only get about 20 -30 kids. Well I had well over 50 kids and their were people out in the hall looking in to see the show. The room was packed.

This is my first library show and it was so cool. I am now hoping to use this show to get into the other libraries.

Now, as for the photos..... I am very sorry that I have not got them up yet. I just have been running around like a Madman. Hell, I just got back from a Gig at the VA in Brockton, MA. I am going to try and get them up in the morning. 

I do not know if any of you are on Facebook, but I have a few photos on there that I took with my photo. (It's not the best camera.)

Till next time,
Sean

Hey Sean… Happy New Year!

It is good to see that I am a winner at something… see already 2010 is turning out to be a better year than last.

It is good to hear from you and it sounds like you are doing well… I am happy for you. I too have been busy and need to post a new Cup Family photo. When I do, I will let you guys decide on what Cups you want me to do a write up on.

Thanks for sharing the photos of your cups Bruce. I swear I think I could look at cups all day.

My friends don't understand my fascination with them at all. 

Just yesterday I ventured out to Ikea... Of course my only purchase was a set of those creme colored cups. Hard to believe how good they feel and that they will take a tennis ball as a final load. I think someone should copy that design in heavy copper and spin a few sets. Maybe add a small rolled rim. Of course, they would probably cost a bit more than 29 cents each, but hey, I'd buy'em.

DC James… I am only too happy to share; I enjoyed your recent photos over at The Big Green. Your collection displays so well in your cabinet, I hope to do the same some day.

I think that we share similar taste in Cups, I agree with your comment on the Ikea Cups and pass a lot of time just looking at Cups too… there are worse things that we could be doing.

Thanks,
Bruce

Wow Bruce,

A collection the most of us can only dream about. This will help through the tough times.
