[Coco] Status of the CoCo Lounge

[Glen VanDenBiggelaar]

Well Mark, it has been like living in a warehouse, literally. Boxes and Coco
parts strewed everywhere and in my closet , boxes piled to the roof. I could
not even have people come over for the last year, as there was no place even
to sit, as my living room was just covered in boxes. I had only the couch
and this computer to sit at and a path cleared so I could watch the TV. 
Its probably for the best that I was single at this time.
-Glen

$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!!!!!!
