So is it "gold-encrusted" or "gold-plated"? I typically reserve the former appellation for beautifying techniques involving chunks of mineral, not for malleable precious metals.



Yeah, it's expensive!

Sean Connery: Uh.. I'll take "Swords" for $400.

Alex Trebek: It's actually not "Swords".. these are words that begin with "S". The answer is: "Popeye is this sort of man".

Burt Reynolds: What is.. Popeye?

Alex Trebek: [ sighs ] No. [ Connery buzzes in ] Sean Connery. And, remember, these are words that begin with the letter "S", i>not "Swords".

Sean Connery: Saber! That's a sword and an S-word.

JPalmer, you watch entirely too many old TV shows and movies! LOL. I'd forgotten that SNL skit, but it's a classic.

Yeah... in my spare time when I'm not shooting all the time, I just sit in front of the television and space out.
