How 'Bout That...

But the first post is EXACTLY the same. Compare... Is there a reason?

I'm sorry, I just have trouble with this coincidence...
Was this done on purpose? Was the answer the 1st time not sufficient?
Are we just looking for things to post? (I like poems... I like poems that make no sense... I have a perfect poem for this occasion...)

Never Mind...

When the 'officer' comes to inspect the order, simply shout .. " I'M WITH THE FBA ,FEDERAL BUREAU OF AUTHORITIES and THIS IS A TOP SECRET MATTER OF NATIONAL SECURITY " :!:

BETTER YET, TELL THE OFFICER THAT YOU CAN'T HEAR VERY WELL AND COULDN'T HEAR THE WARNINGS OF ILLEGALITY. :D

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE SHOUTING RIGHT? :wink:

Isn't everything Illegal in L.A. New York is almost as bad but I still get my picks. It is illegal to be in possesion of picks but the court has to prove intent.
