Ok, he's got a crank in his hands. I couldn't see how the machine was manipulated.

This could be quite a ballsy contraption.

I actually visited there in the '70s. Was in much better shape then.

The franchise expanded to nearby Jacksonville NC, and was run by Tom Hadballs.

I've been kicking around a good response to your post, Patty, but it seems that you're not kicking up too much of a fuss about being kicked out of 1st place.

(And I did all that without the aid of kickapoo joy juice.)

Yo, Expat, I think Patty's just kickin' it. (Well done Patty.)
