Default Moving to Houston!!!
Woohoo!! Finalized my job offer in Houston and I'll be moving at the end of this month!! Made a post about 2 months ago asking about Houston...which got the ball rolling.

A big thanks to a certain individual on the board for getting my foot in the door. Look forward to getting back into the car scene and meeting some of you Houston guys!!

Sorry for the random thread....just excited!!

Ken

Congrats Ken. You can come on down on the weekends before you relocate if you want to look around the area.

The job is I guess what you'd consider north central. Will be staying at my aunts for a little while around the 249/beltway 8 area until my house in SA sells.

Thanks for the offer Tony....I will be in touch regarding showing me around!!

YOU my giant friend will catch it too like everybody else , just have a little patience. Coming to a corner near you! . It tickles me to think maybe in a few days you will be the one stuck in the sack in fetal position shaking like a leaf on a cold winter night~! (even though I dont wish this on you or anybody, it's nasty!).
