Hoser!!
Now I have to go look up John Candy's boozy, chainsmoking Mr. Science character! :lol:
Lola Heatherton, lmao.
And when they were fundraising for Red Green, they would unroll rolls of ducts tape to tally donations. And Graham Greene was a regular before Dances With Wolves. And he is an episode after it came out and is trying to keep a straight face while they make cracks about his character and the movie.
Good times.

Luckily there are a lot of clips on YouTube. :tup:

I loved Graham Greene! And every time Mythbusters would run one of their Duct Tape episodes the words "Duct tape - the handyman's secret weapon" would flash through my head. Too bad Red never tried making a boat out of duct tape.

Oh, no! No!
It just irks me no end when I see people come here to this thread and request authentification here, in what comes off to me in a very demanding and entitled way. This is not easiest medium. But that is why I lurked for a while to figure it out.
*going to stop now* *looks out window for neighborhood kids to yell at*

Hi, could I please get an authentication on the two bags in this lot listing? The serial number on the black bag looks like 9153 which is for the City Willis. However, the bag strongly resembles a 9163 Legacy Compartment Tote. Could this be a stamping mistake? Thanks!

It really does look like a 5. It could just be the angle of the picture. Wait until you get it to see if it actually a 6. I think both bags are authentic regardless.

That's encouraging, thanks. I'll check it out when the bags arrive.

Following up here to report that the serial number on the black bag is really 9163. You were right, it was probably the angle.:smile:

Good evening, could I please have someone to look at this supposedly Prairie bag? Not interested in buying it, just curious because the design looks off, stitching is sloppy and leather quality poor, imho.

Thank you!

It's fake. It has lots of "issues" in addition to those you mentioned. J is a Chinese plant code but the creed states that it was made in the US.
