    I wonder if Blugene knows about this. He has been looking for a Comet hood. He may be trying to get an original one though. :drive:

    we need to designate ( in some official forum capacity) soupbone as our

    maverick/comet locator extrordinaire.

    make him a badge/sig. all the trimmings.

    I'll take a badge for that! As far as the store goes it's a business I run for my buddies dad. We sell home brewing supplies. Basically anything you need to brew your own beer and wine. :thumbs2:
