    YES! REALITY! What a concept... I don't blame you really! As the years pass I don't look forward to traffic of any type and the same goes for driving in the rain!

    But I saw a clean shot in there for a brief moment and had to take it!

    No worries, Mike....if the roles were reversed, I would have taken the shot, too... I know you're surprised by that!

    All GOOD FUN!! Helps the day to go by!

    I guess IC2 keeps a close eye on his posts as he rarely gives us any good shot! But I'm patient!

    It's been a few weeks since I've been able to get off the couch 'cause of my back. So I'm finally feeling good enough to go to the shop for a few hours! I'm leaving now an will touch back here after! TTFN...

    Nope! I'll be more happy on friday! I've got Pre-op tomorrow and am scheduled for surgery on L4 & L5 on Thursday morning @ 8 AM..

    Since I missed most of the holidays - if all goes well - The wife and I are going to make our own Christmas on friday! I hope Santa gives me what I want most!

    I did get to the shop and changed the rear axle settings, I wanted to raise the rear end as it was way to low. 3.5 hours to move 2 bolts! And I am wiped!

    Dang, Mike, I was just having some fun and I apologize for an insensitive remark. I hope all goes well with your back surgery. My wife has been putting it off for years now with pills, shots, tens electric therapy, trips to rehab and so on. Not fun.

    Again, my apologies and best of luck
