Ugh...

Searching for anything but mild steel angle in Central Iowa sucks. Most of those places look at you like you have a penis sticking out of your forehead and try to make you feel stupid for having asked.

I love Iowa. I do. But if you do something anything near out of the ordinary, it's a struggle to find someone who's even ever heard of it.

"Yew want tube steel to do wut? What are you... sum kinda FREAK?!?! Why kent you buy a Camaro/Mustang like a NORMAL person?"
