Could someone please help me out on how to purchase coalboats. I cannot get them in my area. They were the only thing that worked for me. A phone call would greatly appreciated. Thank you. 570-660-5248

I called him and left a message right after this post about it and he never responded. He also has never returned to the board since that post. Odds are, he found his coalboat. Whatever that is.

When I was a kid, it was slang for the shoes worn by a guy with very large feet. :D

I suppose he may have been looking for one of these. I don't suppose they show up for sale very often, though.
