Followed by going up to Ohio to finally pick up my Stang. Then after all is said and done driving to NV to pack up the house getting ti ready for the final move back to TN.

Well Dirk I am about 6 hours north of you so if you decide let me know, cold beers will be waiting!
Just dont do it that 1st week of April since I will be closer to your old house that week.

Also Thanks for the compliments guys. I am really loving it. I am waiting for my hood to get here so I can take more pics to show you about what its gonna be looking like.

Oh and btw I WILL be putting BOOGIENIGHTS across the top of the front windshield so everybody can see who is coming.


On another note lastnight was not a good night for me. I was rushed to the ER due to having chest pain. The doctors found that I have Gallstones and are really stressing that I have my Gall Bladder removed within the next few days. I will keeep you guys posted on what is going on. I am at home right now taking it easy and relaxing.

speaking of Bobby and Lisa, I saw where he banged the truck up pretty good at the beginning of the month. I saw some post on YB, he was shaken but not injured but the truck looked pretty toasted. I hope he gets it back together soon.

Yeah the truck is pretty much toast from teh pics I seen too. I just wish that I had the money for him to build my motor cuz I think that would help get the truck back together and on the track again.

The most difficult thing to do after surgery is LETTING IT HEAL PROPERLY :shock: :shock:
Us folks who like going WOT all the time, make very poor patients :oops: :oops:
I was wonderin' about ya Dennis, ..do take it easy or you'll be going WOT in reverse ! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Hows your wife doing with her medical issues ? Hope she's whakin' it and getting better ! :D :D

Well guys my vacation has ended and I am currently back in Kuwait awaiting a flight to Afghanistan. I feel tons better after the surgery but still aint 100% yet. I still have some pain from it but not that bad.

My vacation actually took a bad turn and the wife and I are splitting up. I guess it is just one of those things. Maybe now I can focus on getting the car done and having fun on the track more to kee my mind at ease. We are still staying friends thru everything so it aint all bad.
