Thanks for the ping, old FRiend- since I lost the only thing of value to me in this world:

http://www.freedominion.com.pa/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=132035 Miss Emily has died

You have my most sincere condolences, mate. Time changes all things, but in this case I truly wish there had been a bit more time for you.

If TEOTW comes, I’ll just stuff a handful of mags in a haversack, pick up that old BAR I used to carry,

and start

walkin’ and talkin’...

Kindest regards to you, and yours.

Backhoe, I've got a middlin-fair supply of .30 caliber M2 ball around where I'm at, so should it come to that, it's available for your BAR. Though we'll have to pull it out of the Garand clips it's in right now, that'll give us a chance to sit upon the ground and tell sad tales of the Deaths of Kings.

I'll sock away a couple of extra BAR mags as well, just in case you might drop by.
