[QUOTE="RippleX482, post: 816061, member: 6665"] Wow! So had some free time browsing around the web figures id have a look to see whats new. Surprised to see my post is still alive and well. -local804guy4life So i figured id confirm what you have heard.. I did get injured while working and the result was me needing to get a knee surgery.
