RE: blown opp.

Thats why you don't mess around with something your not gonna shoot. Learned my lesson on that many years ago.

RE: blown opp.

Some of us will "blind call" to try to make something happen. ALWAYS take a look all around you before calling to make sure this kind of incident doesn't reoccur.
