More to think about...
We Built This in the
United States of
America!
Definitely more to think about - The end of the year is fast
approaching and this is “my” sales pitch to each of you who have
procrastinated about getting your marketing plans together; getting
rid of those extras out in the shop that are taking up room; or doggone it, you never did get that information into WWDR’s
WWDR Editorial
Department so they could do a super article for you. DO IT NOW!
December is the very last issue you can get into to take advantage of
keeping the 2014 rates through 2015! Yes, it’s true - and the WWDR
Team is the only team that will “hold the presses for you!” So don’t
dismay, just because you are reading this and it’s the 1st of
November or thereabouts, you can still get into our December issue.
BUT HURRY! Call 850-547-0102 NOW for details.
Now, on behalf of the WorldWide Drilling Resource ® Team,
Happy Thanksgiving to each and everyone of you. Doesn’t matter
what country you are in, it’s our time to say thank you for giving us
the privilege of coming into your homes, offices, rigs, or wherever

know it from the bottom of our hearts.
You’ve read many times in this magazine, we are not a BIG
CORPORATION. We are little, but with HUGE hearts for, and dedication to this wonderful industry ~ drilling. As you read each
Ronnie, Managing Publisher
