In all seriousness, grats.
Can we do it in Miami so that there can be a pun made about it being "for the record"?
I'll be in Miami in February on the way to the Bruise Cruise. A few others swirlers will be too... so it is possible...

Sadly, the Mrs. shot me down on the Bruise Cruise...apparently, Grim and me in Las Vegas last summer was more than she could handle. :lol:
Wait until 2012 - the last summer swirl rock out pre-apocolypse! 8-)

A few pictures taken during my (very) brief ownership.

P.S I hope the two $3 sales don't ruin the average prices or anything like that.

Thanks Taro - you did alright yourself. You should have flipped back to Kees for a profit!

Those pics are brilliant! Great fun. However I must have missed something. Did Taro help facilitate the transaction? Where is Kees' HPLB now?

The pictures of Taro selling it back to him weren't included. They wrote another contract stating that the 1mm crease wasn't mentioned before the sale, and for that reason only, Taro would be selling it back to him for 3 Euros.
