You're missing a couple of 1500 Shows! There are actually 5 shows each year - mid-January, March (around the 20th), early June, late August, and October (around the 23rd).

Don't junk it if you live in a cold climate. Mix it with the ice melter you use on your steps, sidewalks and driveway - it works better than sand.

Great! Thanks, Cat. How many, uh, unmarked bills would it take to get the .45 moved to the front of the line ? (Hey, it works in Chicago)

Forum: Group Buy Archives

Mine was here when I got home last night (46637). It appears to be "perfection personified". Many thanks, John, for all the time and energy you devote to these GB's.
