Way to go Jamie, you hardly paid for just one. ;)
I was going to volunteer helping with those, but after seeing that they've been buffed with that fruit of the loom, I think I'll pass :o ;D
Do try to get together with Dwight, he's a good guy ;)

Don't you feel guilty about paying so little for so much?  As for myself, I'll take any deal available, but I'm cheap.
