Speaks with Wolves!



Elkhounds don't speak with wolves. They corner moose and keep them at bay until the hunters get to the scene. Especially in Norway.

The people who have been herding the elk have been sacked.  They will now be herding moose.

Norsk Elghund = Norwegian Moose Dog. They're bred to hunt what we call moose and the Europeans call elk. And they're not hounds.

Looks like bidding has ended again, this time it only went up to $611.00. We'll see if the owner lists a reasonable minimum bid this time.

Is it wrong of me to have a chuckle to myself about that?  Greedy bugger got his comeuppance.

Not at all.

You never know, though. Maybe he's just testing the waters and isn't serious about selling unless he gets way over market.

The seller is back up with the Bass IV, with a "By It Now". He didn't relist the 20/20.................

$1599 BIN? He's still dreaming.

Grog

From time to time, I surf around looking to see if any stray 20/20's have popped up for sale.................... Not for a long time. But I did run unto this shirt. I'd bet not many of these were sold either. It's a "must have" for Uwe I'm sure!

Where on earth did you find that? One of those tee shirt places that only prints them when you place an order?

amptech

Must be from the same people I bought this one last year!

I do a search for ´gibson EB6 white´now and then, and there it was :)

It was on Google images, searching for Gibson 20/20 basses. I looked again today to post a link.................... didn't see it again............

Same here; google images. I think the company was called Olympiatees or something.

P.S........... For the same obscure reasons that I bought two 20/20's, I ordered the tee shirt; in Luna Silver of course!
