I looked through my PHC books, but I can't find the part where he describes the "help wanted ad" for a PH.....

Anybody have it handy?

If not, any GOOD suggestions to inscribe on the inside cover of a gift book to a PH who has treated you right?

I like to think I'm creative enough, but I'm having a brain fart tonight.....
