You guys sure know how to make a bruised wallet feel better. Thanks, I knew you'd understand! Outback, you get it, it's RAD with a purpose. And Rez, I finally put together a pair worthy of that...

I managed to pick up another John Barber frameback... I had to have it (thank you, RAD. I thought I had you under control :shrug:). I paired it up with the other one. So, here's what I'm guessing...

Maybe it's just that the B was struck a little too lightly along the bottom making it look like an R? A little hard to see.

Yeah, we posted that at the same time, Martin! That was my thinking too.
