    It's about time the "Cameo Mercenaries" met. Hope you're having a good time in the great NW.

    Hey, Airplanenut is moving today to Seattle.

    He said he's only 11 miles from Russ!!!!

    Competition or buddies?

    I told Jeremy to hook up with Russ and forge new trails in premium eBay coin photography.

    So MadMarty, what's your take on the King of Kent???

    Welcome to the NW. Be sure and make a spoof post from Russ's CU account when he's not looking.

    I thought you were going to say that you went to a topless burlesque show.

    While I do not personally know Marty, it is not hard to figure out he is a goofball... cmon... the icon, his name, his funny posts... It doesn't take a rocket scientist. image

    Oh cool! Although I did expect you to say something like "pure platinum club".

    If by lovable you mean goofy and pudgy, I have to agree. image

    No, but he said if I'm here long enough he'll show me his best $20 hookers.

    Hookers at $20 is the high-class area of town. Where we're at all it takes is a pack of gum.

    Hey MadMarty, the closest I ever got to Russ was purchasing one of his coins on ebay! You have what I would call "a lot of testicular fortitude" to actually encounter Russ in person! image
