aye i took a few of my picks to school (high school) the second day of school. like all my cool trustworthy friends had never seen them before, after that though, i just made templates of my picks in pencil in my notebook.

but im considering taking them and put some practice locks in my backpack. but im still kinda cautious of such things, as public high schools are, well, they suck.

we cant even wear bandanas for anything now, like not even in my pocket. even if its a handkerchief (not that i have ever used one, but you know) and nothing that MIGHT**** be construed as gang related.

Sorry I've been busy for a couple of days... thank you all for you responses! I especially felt ericm's answer to be the best one overall... I guess I've felt wierd about this hobby since about a month ago when I suppose I started...
It sounds kinda Saturday-morning-cartoonish but its really nice to know that there is such an open, and often light hearted forum for people starting something like this, being a bit different from the usual hobbies and activities... BTW the shirt idea isn't a bad idea either :D ...
Everyone is always c0nn3ct3d...

Dorm room? That's where 99.9% of my picking happens.
