[LargeFormat] OH SHEET Contest

[Brock Nanson]

Hi Les,

Well, don't feel too bad... that one was actually quite old - probably 
almost a month since it was posted.  Karl must have been poking around 
some old email he'd kept to reply to later (like I tend to do!!) and found 
that one.

As for the embroidery, why don't you use Karl's motto and a risque outline 
of some of Uncle Dick's work as the image?  Your friends still may not get 
it, but at least they'd like it!!
