Mike, the BAT is ruined - got head lice all over it!  ;)  TOoooo bad, it's such a PURDY paint job! BUT, come spring, I expect it'll do for BIG MIKE  . . . when we're in the mood for merry making, the itchin' doesn't seem so distractin'!

But doncha know, we'll bet Alan Huff 'll 'ave a BAT fer sale come spring - he got one tooo late fer last season and he knows it'll never be the equal of BM's rig . . .an'  'sides, 'tis way ugly  . . an' it ain't even orange er nothin'! BIG MIKE  P.S.  got RG chained up down t' th dungeon fer a littel o' what he deals out all year! An' we knows how t' brew BLACK JUICE proper don't we now . . . Happy Holidays!
