I'll certainly pass along your well wishes, and all of us here at Meguiar's certainly appreciate your wishes and support.

And, for any of you who have seen "Car Crazy" and wondered about Barry, I can tell you that the guy you see on the show is exactly the man in person. He is not acting or hamming it up for the show - that really is just the way he is!! He is a huge part of the reason I walked away from a successful 20+ year career in commercial print/direct mail marketing to come to work for Meguiar's.
