    pffft! just ADD a machine, Wes.

    ~~~~~~~~~

    I clicked on the "Add to Cart" button, for an x3350, at lagoom, but didn't go through with it.
    I really, really wanted to but seeing as I have some things incoming and parts yet to be ordered I thought I better not. DAMN!

    OK, make that three.

    He'll probably use these



    But I'm going to get some heavy duty tire spikes.
