Icon20 oh god, i succumbed....they had me at 'faraday cage'

got it.....from an ad....i just need to have the plastic and the brick and mortar in this case the tile and adobe.....however, i can only look at it until i get well into my next 2 painting commissions and do the paperwork for the tax reimbursement...

this watch just screams 'back off man, I'm a scientist....." peter venkman phd, ghostbusters.....

thats what i love about these rolex's....you can be paul newman, sean connery and daniel craig depending which you put on....oh yeah, the dalai lama too!

and now,
peter venkman, ghostbuster
