About this ebook
Those unfamiliar with the metal fabrication industry may find this bizarre little period piece too fanciful to be believed but those who are familiar will know that it's business as usual. The craziness you are about to read actually happened to a business acquaintance of the author—even to the fish oil.
Now including a newspaper clipping with a follow-up to the continuing story.
