Oh I got lots of time to chat now a days. I mostly just sit around the lodge and check the forum or play poker on Poker Stars. I go huntin once...
I am proud to say that I have had the honor and privilege of meeting many different forum menbers in person over the years. And yes we have formed...
Well yeah, since I have a degree in psychology, they might. But since I have over 40 years of experience of working with architects - I can...
I did say no exceptions, so yes, that includes pure gold and platinum. The belief that pure gold does not tone is a myth. An acid, regardless...

Yes ANACS used to assign net grades, they no longer do though. I stand corrected on them slabbing holed coins - thought they drew the line at...
