Ric just had a post like this the other day.
Got a pan, it's stayin'.
Got a shovel, it's stayin'.
Guess gettin' too ol' to keep startin' over.
I'll still build and sell, but NOT these. The Boyz can do with them as they want, once I'm under the 'lawn'.

Feel your pain. After 30 years of straightening mine out, it is now perfect. Can't begin to imagine it gone.

Go pour some oil on the floor in the garage.......it will make you feel better.

So what are you going to buy with your handful of hundred dollar bills?
