Did I come across as mean..............I was refering to Jeff aka decamouse. I HOPE that all my posts would come acoss as biased at worst, not mean. I would buy Bruce a beer any time any where, OK not anywhere, I dont know him all that well but you get the point.

AND Kris, I hope to oneday sit down with you after a 3 hour vault session and have a cold one and discuss vault tech til the club kicks us out!!! Then continue until the sun comes up while watching video (who cares of what) until we agree to disagree about the exact same thing!!!!!!!!!! There, I said it I :heart: ya man.....................

Whoa, whoa, whoa there cowboy, you may not know Bruce all that well but I don't know you all that well either, so let's make sure we're watching "pole vaulting" videos ;) and keeping the affectionate statements to a mere "you're a cool mutha*&^%$#"

LOL
