Nah...

Its about Things That Go Whiz And Click.

Some guys are into Leicas and bicycles... some guys are into Leicas and
Corvettes... some guys are into Leicas and electric guitars (particularly
Gibsons from the 60's)... and some guys are into Leicas and Small Arms.

Its all the same thing.

When you get old enough to get a job, and have a $$ in your pocket... you
go after all the mechanical things that you thought about... desired...
lusted after... as you were going to sleep, when you were a kid. You are an
adult, and can have those things, now.

But... watch out for that guy who is into Leicas and Blasting Caps... ;^>

P.S.... Mr. Brummett... very good. Humor is in short supply on The
Internet, these days. Keep it up.
