i have some cool stories to tell, put it that way. i enjoyed myself too much, coming back to my routine really put a damper on things.

i'm at state street bank from mon - thu so i'll call and see how the truck is doing. hopefully the wife doesnt bring the instant gas mph lower than 6 mpg. we should call her "lead foot McGee"

I won't be impressed until it runs down the strip and you frag a clutch or 3 otherwise it's an over-bloated paperweight but any progress is good progress
