At least in the text they identify the machine. But what about this picture on the ad? Made me giggle.

Did you notice the town? It is Greensburg - probably a four hour drive... Why did they put that ad clear up in Fort Wayne?
I bet it has pin rash... charging extra for that???

The older posts will be expired. All posts are removed from Craigslist after 60 (?) days. The newer giggles are the ones you need to start with!!
