        1. Nevermind, I can see by the time stamp that your witty remark was posted before mine on the other beetle shot. I swear that I didn't copy you though, so this makes us "twinsies", lol. Posted 3 years ago
          1. I was confused when I got your notification. It seemed an exact copy. I figured that as a prank you perhaps had deleted my comment.

            Spectacular coincidence hehe.
