[SEL] Attention Aussies - Austral Question

[Arnie Fero]

ROFLMAO!!  Picky, picky, picky....  One minor Strength of Materials glitch
and one show at which Bessie was dismantled with cylinder and piston
handed off to Craig and folks NEVER forget.

As to keeping a long switch in his hand, I dare say Dave reserves THAT
behavior for Bambi & Nitro.  If he spots me headed for the Austral with
wrenches in hand I'd expect to see the .357 wheelgun being drawn.  8-))

See ya,  Arnie
