As that's my breakfast cereal most mornings...I am going to have to try this.... :A Thumbs Up:

View attachment 720013
During one desperate month at university when my horses ran out of hay, I ran short of money. Not enough funds for milk but managed to buy just enough beer to keep me going. Dad showed up unannounced and after snooping around ("You don't look so good!") he discovered I only had part of a loaf of bread, half a pound of hamburger, some ketchup, a six pack of Ranier, and most of a box of Cheerios. "You don't have any milk. What are you doing with the Cheerios?"

"Well ..."

"NO! Not with beer?"

"Actually, Dad, it's not too bad. But the farts are awful. It's been a tough winter and the horses ran out of hay."

"You feed them damn horses and starve yourself?"

"Dad, they'll throw me in jail if I starve my horses. No one gives a shit if I starve myself."

"Point taken."

He bought three bags of groceries while I was at afternoon class. That grub was the sum total of Dad's financial aid through to my finishing PhD. And I never asked for anything from my folks either.

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc
