Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Quote Question......
I've seen a quote a couple times that I always admired but recently realized I have no idea who said it originally. It goes something like:
"A gentleman should only resort to honest labor to keep himself in cartridges and whiskey."
Anybody know who it's credited to?

I don't know who said it, but I sure like it and sure would like to know. Havilah Babcock? Michael McIntosh? Several members of my family lived by that quote, although no publisher would publish them
