Popular Post James Zyskowski Posted January 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2022 Welcome. Sorry I’m late but sometimes this site has it out for me and won’t let me sign in 😂. This is home for a number of us. We share more than coins and do our best to respect each other’s religious and political views by not discussing them here. As mentioned, with it being the newbie forum, we understand that we will see many different questions here and do our best to be patient and helpful. Lastly, we are a pretty humorous bunch, so enjoy. Jzyskowski and cat 😉🙀 Mohawk, Henri Charriere and tj96 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of my favorite movies back when I was a kid in the late 80s and early 90s. AWESOME ON YOU, HOG!!! I already knew you were a cool, great guy, but you've risen to even higher esteem with me, my friend. Which is hard to do since I already hold you in very high esteem Edited January 16, 2022 by Mohawk Yet another Typo from Mohawk.

The new guy not only confessed to the crime, he taunts us with evidentiary photos of the device used in its commission! Q.A.: I am going to let him slide on this one. For well nigh two years I have been trying to ascertain the formal name of the tool used by graders in decapsulations and have been deflected at every turn: Kudos to the OP for finally providing a credible answer! 😉 tj96 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
