Those guys on H.A.M.B. are hilarious...

(google the thread title)

Funny, when I read the story I was thinking :bs: nice to know my spidy sense is intact...

Now, the supercharger is kinda cool, but nearly everything else about it ain't.

Couldn't resist Robert...

Went over to the H.A.M.B. and read all six pages ...man those guys are ruthless, funny for sure, but ruthless! ...kinda sad how the original poster kept defending himself over and over against common wisdom.

Made him look foolish and gullible all the more...kinda like me for believing this story in the first place. Oh well...lesson learned on my part PLUS I should know better at my advanced age...course I just bought a bridge in Brooklyn for a hundy...pretty cool I thought and such a GREAT deal...I'll post pictures of my new bridge in a couple of days...

One H.A.M.B.'r said it the best: "If it looks like BS, smells like BS, it's BS" ...nuff said...

Yeah, seems as if he could have ended it by just saying, "So I got duped, I'm a sap, big deal".
