amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 01/07/2012 10:20 pm No I dont have one... I just heard that one sold today at the FUN show for $1,000,000! Gotta be a strawberry leaf but the radio news did not say. A couple friends are at the show and I did tell them to bring me something nice.....
