The following is part of an email sent to me by Cliff which I found very funny. I asked Cliff's permission to post the funny part. I hope it gives everybody a good laugh.
---------------------------------------------
Pat (ed. Cliff's 6' 6" "little brother)came in yesterday with one of his friends (who is in the militia and got interested in the testing after Pat noticed he carried a knife and struck up a conversation), and showed me the 18" AK. I noticed that the tip had impacted slightly (say .2 of a mm, visible but barely). I asked him what he had done
and he said he was cutting up an old car. I commented that should not have impacted the tip, he replies "Yeah, but I hacked into the cross beam accidently".
Pat was just saying this like it was perfectly normal and you should have
seen the look on his friends face, while we we were talking. As they were walking away the guy goes "Man I can't believe you told him you did that - and he gave it back to you!" Pat replies "That's nothing, you should come up some time when he takes it out. It wouldn't have been an accident if it was
him.".
