Hey Bill Calfee. Are you still kicking?

Yeah, it's me. I'm not had much chance to shoot. I don't know if I told you but I had back surgery in December and I can walk without a cane now but still recovering some.

Friend Gingersnap:

Hang in there and get well....

Wally, two questions:

First.....when we first met weren't you still loading dynamite charges for a strip mining coal company?

Second....do you remember in what year we first met?

Yeah I was Bill. By the time that was done I think I had detonated over 3million pounds of explosives and was number 1 in Kentucky. I'm sure somebody passed it by now. Also developed some unique ways of blasting. Simple math actually but nobody else thought of it.

I think 1992.
 
Come to think of it it had to be over 3 million. I had almost a million in one shot. Just 25 times the legal limit but we had a permit. Maybe it was 30 million. I had a plaque but I don't remember.

Friend Gingersnap:

I thought you were still doing dynamite the first time we met.....and yes, I believe it was 1992 at the BR-50 Nationals...

We've been at this RFBR thing together for 32 years now Wally....
