A.P. Merillat, with the able assistance of the TDCAA investigator board, is going to be updating TDCAA's investigator manual. We'd love to have your input and suggestions on what additional topics, forms, charts, lists, etc. you'd like to see in the next edition.

Please e-mail (beckham@tdcaa.com) or post your suggestions. Thanks!

Projected Release Date for New Manual?

Hopefully, in time for the 2006 Annual Conference in South Padre. If not then, by February 2007 for the Investigator School.

What else would you like to see in the manual?

A.P. did an outstanding job in updating the 2003 Manual. I would only suggest updating the sections requiring an update since the last Legislative session.

Let me know if I can help on the research?

I've got one... only ONE dog-eared, coffee stained copy of the 2003 Investigator Manual with a Resonable Facsimile of A.P. Merillat's signature with a dedication "To Snuffy! Thanks for the ride home... A.P.

TDCAA Members get first shot... before I put it on eBay in two weeks... then the opening bid will be $9.99 Shipping is Negotiable

Psssst -- hey Bill, I'll give you $10 just for the "Snuffy" page. If that's not a deal, then I claim forgery, or perhaps the reference is to a different A.P.

I had it on eBay in the BUY IT NOW for $3.99 and the auction expired...

It's yours for a Snickers and a Diet Dr. Pepper! Next time you're in town!
