Cool.

There are simply too many ways for me to have fun with this article, and most of them would get someone mad at me, (not that it would stop me, mind you) so this time I am just going to sit back, keep quiet, and thank Davehawk for posting this.

Man that would be cool, thanks for sharing.

I can't stand it!  That's what happens when you send a flintlock to Dogshirt for tuning and adjustments. In addition to his legendary, patent pending, trademarked use of flinters in the ancient art  of tightening barb wire, it appears he also uses them for anchors!     

Sorry, just could not help myself. It must be all the smoke out here right now. It is a sure bet that thousands of pot plants went up along with the trees in the Rocky fire. It's not my fault, I'm a victim here.

I'm kind of hungry too.

What really gets me is I grew up right around that lake and I learned to scuba dive in it... I had an underwater metal detector and combed the lake several times looking for booty.... Never saw that thing though --- By rights it should be MINE as I was there first!
