length times girth times girth divided by 800

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Wally Brown gave me the formula similar to Slips. Length X Girth (sq.) Divided by 800. An approx. weight. That is how he figured out the price to charge you I think. It is pretty close. P.
