Wow!....Its  been over a year for the Gauge On-Line Magazine. I must admit, the first two issues were rough looking, and a lot of hard work. But with spitfire taking over the duties as art director, the E-Mag has a first rate look. Thank-you Val. I'd like to thank each and everyone of you....Thank-You....Thank-you....Thank-you.. to those that submitted articles and for that, We have come up with the annual: GOLDEN COUPLER AWARD.

This is how its going to work. A list of all the articles below will also be in a poll thread listed in the General Talk forum. Vote for what you think was the best article of the 2004 - 2005 issues. If you want to re-read an article, a link to each past issue is in the sidebar found on the left, or in the Announcement thread titled "Gauge E-Mag Links". Poll will close November 19th. The winner will be announced November 20th. The winner will then be shipped the "GOLDEN COUPLER AWARD"(shown above)  in which case he will have a picture with him holding the award, for publishing in the January 2006 issue. Re-Read those articles, cast your votes!
