I don't know what's in TP's cab but it looks like you'd need a front end loader or four WWF champs to get it out of there. That's assuming, of course, it's not empty or only partially filled. |

|  | Swamp Yankee | | Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Smithfield, RI | | | Yep, a really great, really under-noted band. And they do live up to their name- lots of songs about girlfriends, social situations, and other cheese. But brilliantly done and delivered with skillful zing. Rock and roll with mathematical precision and wit; shaken, not stirred.
