Good point. Anthony, I'll give you 9k and buy your kids an ice cream at DQ. Not a penny more.

Everything is twice as valuable in the US as it is in Brazil. Still waiting for my invite to stay with you for the Rio Olympics. Running out of time! Please see my Olympics thread for more information.

GLWTS! (Unless you take my offer...)

That was just luck. I hit Chris up at a time that he was doing a run of IJs. It's like he said above, the wait varies based on what's on his schedule.

I highly recommend that if you have a grail pin and several thousand burning a hole in your pocket, that you get at least one HEP machine done. I'll be buried in my IJ, so it was worth the money to me. But because I'm a music teacher, I'll be doing my own restorations from here on out so my family doesn't go hungry.

I'm doing just fine, thanks for your concern. And I did treat myself to an HEP last year. You must have missed that. I'm not really sure what your problem is with me, but feel free to continue giving me thumbs down for every damn thing I write. I got over acting like a 12-year-old about 40 years ago...unless it's just acting child-like with fellow young-thinking Pinsiders.

Anyway, I have no issue with you. Not quite sure what your issue is with me. Either way, free bump for my friend's FS thread!

Well...at least now we know what the A in amendes stands for.

Shh! Be quiet, now. First of all, you're dissing HEP games when my friend is trying to sell an HEP game. And they don't wear as quickly as normal games because of the clear coat.

Second of all, we're making fun of Brazil, so your comments responding to the original topic are out of context here.

Another free bump. Let's keep this bad boy at the top...

And by "all around the globe," I'm assuming you mean the outskirts of Rio?

HEP SS for sale, btw...it's a beauty, and you're not even close to being a moron or sucker if you buy it.

How's about all these free bumps, Ant?

I know his meme said "You are a pussy," but I don't think that's quite what he had in mind, Joey.

I wouldn't mess with rcbrown. Dude's a pro. His brother trained him well.

I choose to be on his good side.

Other Olympic firsts this year? The dumpster diving and sewage surfing events. Huge home advantage.

I dunno, man...that green door on the Congo has GOT to add at least $1000-$2000 bucks. One of a kind.

Dog's cute, though.

No humidity. Rio's perfect. And so is your Scared Stiff.

(See what I did there???)

No. Where's the fun in that?
