Gloat - minor/major you decide

Suckage depends on ratio of mahogany to poplar. 40/280 is about a 15%
sale. Also, no idea of cost/bf.

Now if you were to pick up some nice ash for $0.50/bf -- that might be
a gloat. Reminds me a gotta go the bank and get $(120x0.50) in green
backs for tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks for a postive post, MJ.

It may not go over well, though.
