Every so often, I find something that I don’t need, but I buy it anyway. (Actually, that happens quite often.) I am the exact opposite of that tire-kicker guy that will walk around a gun show at 7:00 am, pick up a knife to look at it for fifteen minutes and go “I like it, but I don’t know what I would use it for,” then put it down and walk away.
Well guess what, if you are one of those tire-kickers, this article contains a Zombie tire thumper to help you along your day. See, I always have you guys in mind, this article is for you.
