Now, Bruce would I Kid You.

Mike Cagon, where did you learn how to count. There are 6 folders.

We can tell that you are Irish. How many leaves on a four leaf clover?????

fitzo · Jul 29, 2003

Dang, George, ya caught me again. I had my hand in my pocket, of course, so I couldn't count past five.

And since I'm dumb Gaylick, I gotta ask, does the stem count as a leaf or not?

later, MR scanna

BTW, it's "There ARE six folders", so you Portuguese ain't got nuttin on us Micks.

way to go Bruce

indian george · Jul 29, 2003

Mike: If you had your hand in your front pocket and reached over a little more you could of counted your stem and you may have gotten 6. Nah, probably 5 1/4.

fitzo · Jul 29, 2003

Well, I wasn't reaching in for coinage, though nanc may say it was small change.... what can I say!

rlinger · Jul 29, 2003

No suprise to me. Bruce is the man. Congrats my friend. I just wish I could see it.

Yep, what Roger said!

Well I'm a slow reader so I just flipped ahead to 112 - Congratulations Bruce! Once it starts it just won't let up, will it? Great work, what a knife. It's in some good company, too.

Yep. Bruce - you've got the goods.

The crazy thing is that the picture actually does not do the damascus pattern justice. There is much more contrast in color than is evident in the photo.

Bruce Bump · Jul 31, 2003

Hey George and Mike, You guys quit playing pocket pool on my thread!

I still havent gotten my issue. Damm.

Thanks for the head swelling.

Bruce: Cagon isn't playing that game, because he lost his Cue Stick.

Bruce Bump · Aug 2, 2003
