I haven't gut my magazine yet?? Is it the "seeded" one with Ted that's a year old now?
Speakin' a stories...when's your ring story coming out? I hear your still pulling out more rings!
I went to the beach last night. Spent 2 more hours diggin' these & watched a couple bikini-clad blonds who probably thought, "look @ that geek"
I pocketed a bunch a quarters which was OK....but I have no idea where the dang rings are?

 

[Tony (NC)]

Yep....that's the one. I've got a story written some place but I haven't submitted it. I think I got BFL from there too!:banned:

 

[Bill Ladd]

Did they use the picture I took of Ted digging with the farmer seeding in his tractor behind him?? I remember that. I also remember it was last summer, & I wore a tank top & gut my back baked like a lobster Remember that? :stupid:
That's one photo I didn't send in

I may be all wet with this theory but here is my take on why some either never receive their W&E mag or receive it a week later than others.
Last month when I received my W&E, I noticed it was rather thick, well, it was two copies stuck together! Both were in the plastic sheath cover, but they were litterly stuck together. The second copy did had a mailing address label on it so I put it back in my box for the next day pickup.

I would be willing to bet what happened to me is not an isolated case, since the sticking together of the plastic sure seems feaseable to many others being delivered.

I am not sure if it was the glue from the label or another source that caused it but W&E might think better of possibly changing some procedures on packaging.

I very easily could have kept that extra copy and I am sure many would have, but you just cannot do that to a fellow detectorist when it has a label on it. Now if there had been no label, then it is a different story.

I could never do it to a fellow detectorist either...but that's probably exactly what's happening. In the old days they just stuck a label on the mag & sent it. Now everyone wants to seal 'em up. I guess they think the post man might wanna read it or something?? I'll probably see mine today....sometimes certain states get it later than others.

YA REDNECK!

 

[Bill Ladd]

In case it may come in handy down the road I guess?
Well at least the mag. didn't get ahold of it & use it for the cover or something

.....at what's on this little flash drive I'm carrying around. As a matter of fact, you seem to have a pretty substantial "Archive" yourself!

Mine happens to center around the dumpo & being BFL :banned:

Thats a pretty good burn. I learned my lesson on my last one. At 5500 feet, it doesn't take long to turn to toast. Slather on sunscreen like a baby now.

My wife baked at the pool one day back when (way back when) she looked like one of them super models and burnt so bad she couldn't wear any clothes for three days. Couldn't be touched either
