I couldn't find the ad. I hope it wasn't someone else he wanted to shoot.

Around here bullets are scarcer than guns right now, so it was a well composed ad.

Well, the guy is from Minneapolis, so he's likely a Vikings fan and that's probably why he only needs one bullet... He won't get much of a gun for that guitar, though...

Hey, I'm a Vikings fan, too, lived in northern MN for thirty years, but I never let myself get that depressed about it. :shock:

sounds bogus. if it's real the duffus might miss. I could see the trade for the weapon but a serious tech would be loading his own ammo, on the hot side, lol.

Nobody's a Vikings Fan... not really. When they're winning, everybody's on board, but once they lose, they're deserted faster than a Leper in a Volkswagen.

Even though I'm not really a football fan at all, I went to every Viking Home Game from 1965-1972 and from 1979-1981 (because my Dad's co. had season tix and there was always one extra).

I saw Jim Marshall run 'backwards', saw Drew Pearson push-off (and he did) and saw the Ref get smashed in the mouth with the bottle (I even know the guy who did it - the authorities caught the right guy, but they didn't have enough evidence to convict).

I even had a job as a Bonded Courier in college and weekly had to pickup Game Films at the airport and had to hand-deliver them to Bud Grant in his office (w/ Annie, his Black Lab, curled up on the carpet in front of his desk).

The Vikings (or Queens in my circles), are a mid-market team. Once a decade they'll give you a little excitement, but most of the time it's: "Wait 'til next year..."

This year won't be any different.

Hardly the stuff to cause suicidal depression...

cheers!

Once you've traded your gun for the guitar, what stops him from using your gun to steal back the guitar? :mrgreen:

Waiting to see if anyone notifies the police. That's a helluva thing to post on Craigs' List, even in jest, considering the murder history it has. :shock:
