| Heck, if they have lots of old greys to get rid of, make Spring Cleaning packs of old grey/brown, and sell them at the Spring Cleaning set pricing points (i.e. large tub pricing), and I'll buy a bunch. Put them in the OLD style tubs, instead of the (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.color)

I figure I'll just make a dolly the same size from bricks and the old train wheels (with the metal axle from the 4.5V days) (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
