that's cool (being promoted, obviously not deploying,lol)...i hear rank is really hard to make in the Navy...my wife's friend just got out of the Navy earlier this year because he said it was hard as hell to make rank and he didn't want to stay in as an E-4...

You are right. Zach (my cousin) often talks about how tough the Navy is to move up, but he's a persevering individual so it doesn't surprise me that he's moving up the ladder so quick. As for being deployed, he's one of those crazy bastards that's excited about it. Might have something to do with the FAT paychecks he'll be getting while he's over there.

*Pops out of hole in ground* I think it looks good!

I have been slammed getting married and catching up on school and have had no board time lately. I did get Josh to fix my tune (S/N Damian) last week and boy is it running nice now. Thanks Josh.

Were any of you planning to head up to the Year One Brasselton, GA show? We are trying to get a few V's to meet up for lunch and then head to the show but I figured it would be fun for anyone to come along.

Here is some info about it.

Brakes and clutch bleed, linelock works, the goodyears seem to smoke pretty good. The tick mc is awesome, pretty sure I got it adjusted. I will take a test drive tomorrow and see how it goes. I think it's safe to say guys...
