Black tie...and Fruit of the Loom. JB

I use Lithichrome for my monument work. It dries within seconds and lasts for years. Watch your depth, and make sure the areas that contain "islands" (A, O, e, and so on) of letters are not in any areas that are prone to flaking. The new Hartco 900 series is really good stencil material if...

Or a sober girl, for that matter...from what I hear. JB

Ah yes...the Pikes. Back in my college days, I only heard rumors, but I'm still curious some twenty-five years later...go figure. We do engraved bricks for a college and I always get a chuckle out of "coded" inscriptions that fraternities and sororities send to their future pledges...
