I love the white...can't decide between White or Sunburst for my 44-60.

Used this exact shot as reference and cropped in on it some.

Yup....I love it as well! its even cooler if you take it "tounge in cheek" as Brian meant it to be...

this was Brian's second submission...the first one..though HILLRIOUS did not pass the censors.....due to a Miley Cyrus reference about her latest B-day cake.....BUT it was/is hillarious!!!

I am sure he will share it if you PM him....

And to all youze above the border, have a good Remembrance Day. Shake the hand of the next vet, Forces member or Mountie you may see. In fact, do it twice; I'm sitting in the bush over deer bait this weekend. Oh, and I lost my damned poppy...

My vote goes to the white. But I'm burst-averse, so I'd vote for almost anything over a burst. The white in this case just happens to be wicked looking.

We'd need you to play. You can trust her well-being to me to take care of. I will take her shoe shopping. All girls like that.

Tat will not be that bewildered. I'm very good at keeping a cool head.

Yeah. We've got no running water (which, seeing as it's subzero at the moment, makes a bathroom run a bit of a chore), and we have to heat with wood, but the magic of the iPhone keeps me abreast of the LOG goings-on. Heh...

Thanks Woody, just a little nod to Ennio Morricone, always loved the spaghetti western theme songs. Now I guess my avatar and profile picture make more sense?

Poor Walt Zombie was left on the editing room floor. But I guess the reference to her boyfriends birthday cake was just a bit too much for some

It wasn't so much the cake but what she was doing to it

Well I guess it was the cake too

BassAgent · #**635** 11-11-2012, 03:18 PM

How do you wear your Lakie? I like mine matching my outfit.

Basstardus · #**636** 11-11-2012, 03:36 PM

the green one is new, Jazz is an old timer for my standards and has been my numero uno since I got it.
