[TheForge] Choices (somewhat blacksmithing)

[Jerry Smith]

Frosty,

Ohio number one cash crop is guess what????  :) It
brings in more than all of the other crops combined.


We have a shiner that comes from Parkersburg WV and is
probably going to the Akron/Canton area. He has a 442
and huggs the winding roads around here like he is
aging some shine in the tires. :) The added flavor,
tires.
