I do resemble those beedy eyes of his, but I never speed when leaving a relic show -- too much potential 'splaining to do, Lucy.

No lawyer, no address...think Bogus_Law_Ski is his real name?

Mikie -

In those famous words of a certain well-known South Carolina congressman several years ago, "You Lie".

I rest my case!  LOLOL!   How soon we forget!

That particular instance was en route to a relic show, and the result of you distracting me on the phone.  I drove like an angel on the way home.

Try explaining a 13" mortar ball to an Alabama State Trooper shortly after 9/11.

"To"....."From" - " What difference does it make? (as the old broad put it)

LOLOL!   And FWIW, poking you with a sharp stick is more fun than I remembered! Louisville wasn't it?

Ahh well.  It has been written and so it will be forever remembered.  The price of fame is too often fortune - it is also said.

There is an 8" mortar shell and two 24 lb solid balls avail if you are still slumming around for iron.  Old time Spanish Fort stuff.
