Here's Cliff, staring down Gard. He shakes off his catcher once, twice, settles in. Here comes the pitch....oooh, it's a hanging curve and Gard punishes him with an upper deck shot to right.

I almost choked on my chicken sandwich!  I wonder if those Koa critters have any issues with splinters? That could hurt!  |

Steinberger, Tobias, Trace Elliot, any others?
Sell anything bass related to Gibson, and they'll destroy it. |

And I wonder if this isn't more about Gibson's scheme of importing it, possibly skipping on some tariffs or something.
God Bless, Ray
