Dell, what is my "nationality"? What is my "sexual preference"? I did not realize that I had insulted you. I guess red neck is a "nationality"? I guess sexual prefernce is an issue with you? My preference is blondes, I guess yours is either sheep or whatever is in the first stall? The fact is , you lying, hypocritical asshole, you and Lamar badmouth us and Halcyon at every opportunity, as you just did at DEMA, and I received several calls from Ginnie Springs where you two half wits held some kind of seminar and spent most of the time badmouthing us and my friends. Not too smart given your track record of some of the most Farm Animal gear ever made, like the Square Light and that recent thing with the funky wrench to open it - so stupid as to be material for Saturday Night Live. The really amusing thing about you two jokers is that you get in front of a crowd and tell them that Halcyon "copied" your gear. Dell, we take that as a personal insult - nobody is that stupid other than the mutant that copied your square light - beyond the pale funny. The second really funny thing is that on your webstie you two big talkers yap about how you are great "explorers" and that the people there at DR do all of this big time diving. Dell, that is too funny. I guess you guys have about worn Ginie Springs clean out by now with all that diving, and the fact is , Jaques, if any of you ever did jack shit we would not be having this conversation as you would be making gear that reflected it. Let me suggest you sell the wheels off of your trailer and buy some real gear from Halcyon.
