    Its funny that you mention that....

    We were just sorting thru our amazing prizes (end of year inventory :() and we've set aside what could be the best prize package to date!!!!

    First off, our lucky winner @RustyGreen will get a one year membership to the Hair Clinic For Men!!!
    *membership dues to be paid by contestant winner. Please see Shane for details.

    He will also receive 3 strands of 8# Stren fishing line!!!! (He'll need to stop by and pick that up, we don't ship :rolleyes:).

    And if thats not enough.....
    *drum roll

    He'll be getting a $2 scratch off!!!!!
    (Its not a winning ticket, we already checked...but still a damn good prize).

    Lastly, but not leastly (is that a word? :notsure:)
    Sir Rusty will be picking up an empty container of wet wipes!!! The possibilities with this container are virtually endless!!!

    Congrats Rusty!!! You earned it!!!

    :fistbump:

    Thank you Sir! :fistbump:

    I'm honored & humbled to be the recipient of such a fine and comprehensive prize package.
    (Easily the best to date)
    :woot::woot::woot:

    You fellas really shouldn't have gone to all the trouble, something like this would have been just fine:

    I already have a use for the wet wipes container - holding all those damn slotted head screws I had to take out of the ductwork... :rant:

    I have found that those slot head screws store better in the trash than anywhere else.

    I will say it , you have earned it to throw the slotted head screws out. I know it is hard, you may have to put something together for your worst enemy but resist and throw them away, or send them to @StayinStock for a prize in his prize quiver ( or patch his shop):fistbump:

    I got my ear protection siting in the stand. Almost can’t like going to the range even with protection. We wear protection in the truck, on the way to calls, I’ve gotten in the habit at home now. Want to keep what I got. Still have some high/ mid tone loss also

    If you don't contain them, the little bastards will come crawling back out through the bag.

    In factories we had many "hearing protection required" areas, generally ear plugs are bright colored so you can check for compliance at a glance.

    Perplexing to me was the number of workers who would barely insert the plugs and seem to think they were putting one over on us.

    :confused:

    It is a shame that being stupid isn't more painful. :frusty:

    After all those years I always have ear plugs in my shirt pocket. :laugh:

    We actually found someone online that made the reproduction stickers. The only thing we couldn’t find for this one was the plastic for the windows in the cab. Put some black pony in the original and called it good.
