Does that new helmet come with those fishing rods attached to the back?

Actually it did fit, but my wife was scared it wasn't and I'd have to pay for it and wear it out of the store.

Possibly but it couldn't be as bad as some of the other helmets, I've used in the past.

I could probably do a deal on that but what I'm really looking for is a sword.

I don't think I'd let the French do that and get away with it...  For one, they'd be banned.

V'Jim, it's you!

You should go back and get that. Assuming the one in your avatar is current then it's a must.
Being level headed is way over rated, you need a dome on top to better deflect the daily $#!+ fall....or cows and whatever.

Yeah, I think I'm going to go back tomorrow and get it assuming it hasn't been sold.  You just don't see those helmets every day.
