In OK city OK? Save this tron!

Looks to be fairly restorable.  If it were within 100 miles or so of me I'd be all over it.

If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

Also notice the DKjr and the stack of cocktails in the background. This could definitely be worth the trip for someone.

Damn it.

I need a TRON machine for a project, but it's not doable at the moment.  I can even get to OKC in about 5 hours...

Damn it.

I tried to talk my wife into it, but got the evil glare of impending doom.
But I'll keep working on her.

Sold for $59. I would have jumped on that in a second if it were anywhere near me.
I've got a fever...

How long have you been married? You ALWAYS buy it and get it home, then spring it on her.

I have found that being up front about cabinets works pretty well. Maybe that is because my wife is awesome. It is the parts that you sneak in. ;)

Exactly!

and I just passed the 16 year anniversary a bit ago.

Sometimes I do go by the rule of: It's easier to ask forgiveness than permission.
But this would have required me to take a 6 hour road trip. 3 there, 3 back.
She might have noticed I was gone.

...Unless I did it during work hours....damn. Didn't think of that.

Another reason this isn't a good idea is because I am afraid what she might spring on me one day. ;) ;D
Bet you never thought of that huh?

Damn.  Could've been there in 30 minutes or less.  Wife would have killed me though.  Still have an empty Centipede.
