Wait a minute. You call the guy a shit-kicker and then declare that the metal caps are "decorative." Maybe that's *why* they're metal :) Enjoy the Bud. Chris Radcliffe chris_radcliffe@mindspring.com '90 Westy Auto "Blue Whale"

The head was sporting a mullet and it was on the shoulders of a guy climbing into a ratted-out, monster style pickup. As I got out of the van he stopped and asked if the van was 4WD. I said yes and asked him how he knew. He told me he figured it was because of the tires. Now I have another good reason to run Hakkapeliitta's: I can impress all the shit-kickers. If I take this to its logical conclusion, I'll start drinking Budweiser and wearing cheap boots with decorative metal capped toes. Rich |
