You want that lifting /climbing harness? Im holding it for you.
Gunner One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure - and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy. - Jeff Cooper |

The harness is virtually brand new. Picked it up at a yard sale from the oon to be ex wife of a guy who got a job as an oilfield electrician 6 months ago, bought the gear..and then was caught ****ing the bosses 17 yr old daughter and made a run for another state (sucessfully). She was clearing his **** out and I bought a bunch of it. Been semi sucessful in selling a lot of it, but have hung onto the rig in case I needed it. Ive got another one Somewhere, in a nice gear bag...now if I can only find it so I can use it....shrug.

You ARE bonded, aren't you? Be aware anyone with Google (make that your insurance company and employer) can and will find this discussion when the harness fails and the lawsuits begins.
