Excellent, excellent, excellent, Jay Noone. I intend to be at all (or most) of your presentations…as many as I can. Good stuff and thank you!

How many people would be interested in taking a hand cuff lock picking class?

There can be a few options one would be just show up and take the class, an other option is pay for a pair of clear hand cuffs that you can take home and use for

We are looking at $30 to $40 for the money part.

This class would be taught by Silver Dave

Damn Jay, I thought maybe I would skip Forkfest this year but that sounds awesome. I’ll try to work it into the schedule.
