I would like to see DT try that with a lumber saw. <br /><br />Anyway you are reminding me of years ago when the Ritz Cracker ad was all over the place; my younger brother and his wife took a road trip down to California and back. When they returned they said there were variations of Ritz Cracker billboards throughout the state and they came across one that said: Tits-on-a-Ritz-Mmmm-good-cracker. I tried to Google and find one, but no joy and they did not stop to photograph it. skydiveboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174073226290431753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730391.post-12800814729454040452016-10-08T11:13:18.951-07:002016-10-08T11:13:18.951-07:00Absolutely.
