Snuck it past SWMBO and it's in the shop, waiting to be stored away. I
had asked LV if they could sell me scuffed up/glue-stained clamps so no
one would know they were new, and they just smiled.


Hey, I can handle that for you. Bring the clamps and a case of beer over to
my place and while we're drinking the beer, we can drop the clamps off my
7th floor balcony a few times. (you retrieve them after every drop). I offer
a 100% guarantee (or a refund of your used beer) that the clamps will look
scuffed up and appear to be several years old by the time I'm finished.




I kinna like that idea. However, there is a wee problem. I told her I
was going 30 miles to buy pants in the city. I ended up going there,
plus another 10 miles to LV. An additional 250 miles to Hogtown and I
think she would have been suspicious, even if the clamps came back scuffed.

But I like the way you think. We're all in this together and yer pullin
for me.
