Chris had a 'Colt Python Revolver' confiscated by the Border Patrol before being let back in the US after his Mexican canal misadventures. What was the origin of that gun? Where did he get it? Was it a gift from someone or a purchase? Same questions for the expensive watch he gave Jim Gallien. What'...

Thanks "fredmerlin".
I have to admit though, Im not sure what you are asking lol. Try that again sans the underlining.

You can order the DVD but you will not get it. Evidently Ron Lamothe is no longer supplying the DVD, or he is just collecting the money you send via Pay Pal. Look elsewhere for the video.

Sometimes I write shit here and I shake my head and wonder what the hell I was trying to get at, or what the hell my point was. Instead of deleting this rant, I've decided to just leave it up. After all, I don't hate it's entirety, just a few parts of clouded judgement in writing. If it helps my cas...
