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.

Yes, Remington. Daryl, the only other person I have met who knew Willie well, or at all, was my late PGCA friend and neighbor Terry Boose. We used to have a great time telling Willie stories to each other. Terry's Dad was a friend of Willie's. I guess Jerry Smith knew Willie too. Terry and I happened to be cruising a Maryland show a few years ago when we came upon the famous Eckmeyer A-1 Special 28 gauge (not Mr. Cordell's gun). I think the gun pictured on this forum a few days ago is that very gun, (not Mr. Cordell's gun). Terry and I tried to talk each other into buying the gun, but somehow did not do it. I have known Willie since I was a little kid, like Terry did. When I returned from military service in 1969, Willie offered me a job at the International Harvester distributorship. Boy, would I have some stories if I took that job. I think you know what I mean. I remember a visit to Willie's house in Howard County one weekend. This visit was unusual because another Parker person was with me, but I just can't remember who it was. I think Willie spent more time at National Capital Skeet Club than he did at his own club.
