      Great picture with nice clouds :-) But this must be D-AIGX, not D-AJGX.

      You're right! It was a misread. I thought it was a strange registration for LH when I listed it.

    14. caribb (40 months ago | reply)

      LOL.. I kinda like it. It's a simple universal statement about football, it's both childlike and adult at the same time.. stands out and I'm sure people take notice. What's not to like :-) Ok so it looks like Dalmations and cows but aren't Dalmations and cows cute too?

    15. kakaposh (40 months ago | reply)
