    Quivers?
    They don't shake? Well, mine does once in a while, but I just tighten it back up.

    Is there some other meaning to that word that I just don't know?

    Forgive me, its very slow at work tonight. I haven't seen a single person since 18:15, its 22:42 now...:bash:

    :huh: :huh: :huh: :computer:

    No. No, I'm not happy. I would have been better off not asking, and just spent the rest of my life wondering that.
