Wow, somehow i always feel indestructable in my bump, of course theres a few things you can hit with one and buff it out that would total a newer truck/car.

Glad he walked away from it.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~
