Just wondering....did you and your partner ask to MD his land before you started? If it was mine I wouldn't take less than 50% and if you ticked me off I would kick you off and buy my own MD. Now, if you never asked me for permission in the first place I would also kick you off and buy my own MD or hire someone else to find it.

Because we tolking about offers , I post a part of an email from a Third World country , where I did some " business " with gold mines in the past . And now the offer :

" Hello my dear

Re: PAYMENT AUTHENTICATION

I am........, Chairman Foreign Contract Review Panel; my office monitors and control all foreign contracts payments. I am the final signatory to any transfer or remittance of foreign contracts settlements.

I have before me list of funds, which could not be transferred to some nominated accounts as these accounts have been identified either as ghost accounts, unclaimed deposits and over-invoiced sum etc. I write to present you to the federal government that you are among the people expecting their funds to be transferred into their account, on this note; I wish to have a deal with you as regards to the unpaid certified contract funds with value US$25.5 Million. I have every files before me and the data will be change to your name to enable you receive the fund into your nominated bank account as the beneficiary.

I have the opportunity to write you based on the instructions I received 2 days ago from the Senate Committee on Contract Payments/Foreign Debts to submit the List of payment reports / expenditures and audited reports of revenues. Among several others, I have decided to remit this sum following my idea that we have a deal/agreement and I am going to do this legally.

MY CONDITIONS.

1. You will give me 50% of the total contract funds as soon as you confirm it in your designated bank account.
2. This deal must be kept secret forever and all correspondence will be strictly by email / telephone for security reasons.
3. There should be no third parties as most problem associated with fund release are caused by agents or representatives.

If you AGREE with my conditions, l advise you on what to do immediately and the transfer will commence without delay as I will proceed to fix your name on the Payment schedule instantly to meet the 3days mandate.

Yours Sincerely. "

This is an offer , from the many in over the world .

Lately, I've had to start turning down those offers. The several that I accepted made me so stinking wealthy that I can't handle any more money. As it stands I may have to bury my loot in iron chests and make a map for my grandkids so they will have fun digging it up.

Just don't make the map a "star map", base it on fairy tales or include a cipher or the loot will never be found.

And don't make stone tablets, people will argue over what they mean until the end of time.

Good advice. Possibly a simple USGS map with little red crosses to indicate the locations. Maybe I'll bury some of my old metal junk as a test to see if they can locate it. Then work up to the valuable stuff like my prized collection of peanut butter jars.

Actually, I closed the offer out after the hunt. It would appear that it is fun and games now, enjoy.
As far as the hair, It would appear that Di Vinci went wild from time to time.
How did the front end work go? any improvement? Frank...

Steering stabilizer is a vast improvement. Had to go to the factory for a custom fit, and install. Now it is one finger control even in cross winds.
Glad to hear it worked. My old Aerocoach conversion had cam and lever steering. There was no salvation for that, but I did develop some powerful arm muscles.lol On my first trip I used a whole tube of bengay on the way to Yellowstone, but I was OK on the way back. My present 22' Xplorer on a ram diesel chassis handles better than my car and the MH has 4 wheel drive. Frank...
