Re: New MP Gamer Needs Help

[jeff-n-kristen@juno.com (Jeffrey M Meyers)]

Sounds like it might work - If (big if knowing the GOD) there's a chain
saw and/or a laser in the bolt hole.

I spoke with the GOD and he told me once I get down there I'll find
literally tons of concrete mix & rebar - so it looks like the problem's
solved.

Thanks for the Input!
