I was afraid he was going to pull us all over. LOL when I saw you coming up on me I though you were doing atleast 100. Glad to hear he let ya off with a warning.

Tom ( pewter T/A) and I were fallowed by Tinley from I80 and harlem all the way home. I wonder if they had any reports of us driving like **** heads earlier. Joliet sucked but the cruises were fun. Good times.
