Numbers matching doesn't bother me. I want to put a BB in.
I need to check the bird cage and frame for sure. Anything else?

I am extremly curious as to where a kid (16 and under) would get the funds needed to play with the big boys? Especially one that doesn't have a drivers license yet? $8500 is a good chunk of cash to be throwing around not to mention the cost to even get that car mobile again......

one hell of a paper route. I think we all know where the toys come from though.
Hey, more *ahem* power to ya, I wish my father spoiled me like that.
