Just try THAT if your hobby was women!
Yes, all SWMBOs are wonderful. If you don't think so, either you're the wrong person or she is. |

But with my old eyes and the low res, I could be mistaken. I did magnify it 400%... |

Are we to assume that by next month, you'll own half a headstock?
Local sale, or o/s? |
