Dayum!!! Thanks for the update, I think that's the most you've ever said. Look at the bbs activity. Yahoooo, Hawkins would be proud. Where is that lowlife? Maybe we can draw him out... How old are you Pot? (never mind) My bad. I'm not much for naps, maybe 20 0r 30 min. (Power naps for the politically correct) ((read Polly Baker)). But the time seems to fly. Like right now it's 7:12 PM and I still haven't eaten (had 5 beers though) and a Football game is on that I need to watch, only because it's dark outside and I don't have a shop to rebuild a car. (My Yugo still runs fine) Ha! But this is an interesting thread and I will continue later... You will probably laugh but the football game is between Boise State and Fresno State. Desperate huh???? Oh BTW I turned of the TV when TCU recovered the 2nd kickoff muff, still don't know the score but from what you said above, Miss must have outlasted them........Later dtort
