[Coco] Status of the CoCo Lounge

[Mark Marlette]

$600 is not a bad rate. I had over 1250 lbs of CoCo items shipped from  
a former vendor to me. More than 30 boxes. Over half of my house is  
CoCo items, four warehouses as I call them. House is over 3200 sqft.   
I don't know how Glen can do it in an apt.

You have to be CoCoNuts!!!!!!
