Fear Not is a great seller, and I'm certain they will offer you something more suitable for your freebie. Just ask. If your dad figures out what an OBT is, he will likely be upset about it, and understandably so. Their bite is likely, and also "medically significant". They also don't fit any of your original criterion except "cool looking".</p></blockquote><p></p>
