That botton pallet 2nd from the left looks like it has some HUGE cans on it and there are some long skinny ones too. |

Man, that's just down the road from us, too. I think zuma should consider this one, he probably needs a few more and could start a resale business!  |

I was going to say, that's a lifetime supply...but then again, I'm sure there is someone out there who could find a way to run out....

The WGA should buy them - stencil the logo on the side and camp paint them then sell them for $10 a piece or something. That would be a good moneymaker. Make a challenge out of them across the state. Find all 960 of them and go for the final. In the meantime, Zuma can store them in his garage - actually - set up "distributors" who are WGA members across the state who can divvy them out and collect the $. Can we have a ammo can painting event?
One, one more stipulation - the cans all have to be skirt lifters. |

Ok, I'm in.  |

Brian, if you would like a 2.5% share I would be willing to split.
or anyone else for that matter.... first one to post an okay to split will be my partner on this. I only need?? want?? 24 cans. I will most likely be in trouble for the 24 already. "no really dear, I will get them out of the garage in a week or so. " [] |

O.K. I'm in for a 2.5% Pete. I've been upgrading my micros for a couple years now, and I really want one of those lampskirt ones. Stealth paint come with that too? |
