Ah yes…. I had this case. It took a licking and kept on ticking for over ten years of hard slamming daily use. Then…. well…. sorry to say (Nope, NOT sorry to say) I completely lost track of it.

When I was little, I loved it when our class got to go on field trips. Besides getting out of school, going where people were actually making stuff was always red-letter. I learned so much more watching assembly lines than I ever did sitting in assembly.

As far as I know, you don't give out free stuff, but the yucks are priceless.
Thanks for reminding me – I need to get some stitches removed…
