i do enjoy the 3d course there, and of course the commarodary (sheese i don't know how to spell that) of just hanging out sometimes. now everyone in the state knows that he's a jerk, and there are many parts of the country where you'll get beat up just to mention the shop owner's name. my little buddy who works down there has people hate him just for working there. but, he's centrally located in the boonies between a lot of us who like to get together and shoot the breeze and maybe a practice round. maybe we'll open a shop and put him down.
