HBeyer2177 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 oh...dad reminded me of a classic story.Carlisle, 1982...my little brother was 6, and he liked George...odd given his roots :P so he walks up to George, shakes his hand ( GP was GREAT with kids) then tells him Westshore had a guy who could throw a rifle higher than he could throw his mace. George smiled and said he'd work on it. Scottie thanked him and walked away :P <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hence why I LOVE your brother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
