BadThad, you are on a tear! Cut back on the caffeine, dude. Then send me that AU '18-S. I need it for my album. Lance.
rlm, You deserve it more than I do. PM me your postal address and I'll send it to you. Lance.

Old pix I should reshoot. Lance. [IMG][IMG]
This '11-D has nice surfaces but I have mixed feelings about it due to the splotchy toning on Abe. Been looking for an upgrade for a while. Lance....
