Thanks for thinking of me but you got me all wrong; I'm going through
nothing but pure envy.
I'll be walking down the street beaming clicking way with a thing like that
on an M9.
Just set it at its closest and leave it there for a few rolls.
F 28 inches and be there.

Anything further away than 6 feet magically disappears; turns to tiny
specks.

Just climb right up to them till you can see their nostril hairs and click
away.
