Re: Let’s write a story togethe

True! But a good story never has started out with a "good idea"! The best stories have started out with "hold my beer and watch this!" At least the ones people remember, cherish, and talk about. And the tattoos and scars to prove it! Good thing I have plenty! And nothing to prove...

Sal,
K390 and a canvas micarta for the street beat would be ideal set up. I believe and would definitely be in for a few.

Re: The Discovery of Stainless Steel
