Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Toys



Hey Guys,
   I feel better now. I'm right there with ya David.
Guess they think we're "The Kids" now....lol.
   By the way, are we close enough geographically to
do some sub stuff together, and maybe let our kids
target practice some too. My boys could use a little
healthy competition. Especially from a girl. 
   Anyway, I guess we sub nuts come from everywhere,
of all walks of life, and most any age, right?
