It was hilarious.
    I need to find some pearl blue spraypaint for the edges too, to give it that good "heat-cycled" look!

    Hah! No doubt.

    Or, you could just take a torch to 'em and heat 'em up a bit!

    You know, what tipped it for me was something your wife said while we were in bed together. Curiously, she said we had roughly the same build. From the waist up, I imagine. ~Fletch
