see, without those Dakine Cold Mitts she'da been a goner, eh :?: Kinda cool like flying in from space and she didn't have to fork over a million bucks for a spaceflight, it IS like winning the lottery 8)

I wonder how high you can go in a kite.....But more importantly: Where the hell do you find this stuff, JL :roll:
