Reply:Nice but how rigid is the front part? I know plumbers typically carry PVC pipe so weight would be less of an issue.GravelThe difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no difference.

Reply:if i put a baby elephant you'll buy a bottle of whisky huh?so while your drinking whisky in michigan,i'll have an elephant in my truck in california,makes sense, i'm quite certain now that you are a welder!face all times with a positive mental attitude,then and only then will you have done your best.
Reply:the problem with whiskey is that after a while you start to see elephants,so , that's why i don't drink whiskey .so it stands to reason that if a guy has an elephant in his truck, he's already got whiskey and won't need yours!  lolface all times with a positive mental attitude,then and only then will you have done your best.
