Default The craziest thing just happened...

I just clicked on the link I have saved in my favorites for Treasure Quest and as I did that a White's Metal Detector commercial came on tv. I have never seen a commercial for md's before or at least not that I can remember. I thought it was ironic that it happened at the same time I was loggin into this site...I know, its been a long day at work and I was probably seeing things...I will stop drinking now! LOL! but I did see that commercial. It talked about md'ing being one of the fastest growing hobbies in the world. Neat I thought!

You are probably right Pris...unfortunately, I have the three little ones from the time I get home (3:30) until my wife gets home around (5:30)...

Just kidding, Hey, the more people out detecting the more people I get to meet.

Question MD commercial!

Was that for a local dealer or from Whites in Sweet Home, OR?

If more of us MD, then maybe we can have the same access to parks that Socker Teams and other sports have...don't they tear up the grass more than a responsible TH'er does?
