actually it was a little *too* easy, kevin.  no fun at all...it just worked like it was supposed to.  wtf?  how am i supposed to get all pissed off and cuss at a bike and feel very important when it cooperates?  i'm all about harder, not smarter...  a philosophy that at least i know works with the ladies...  :P

Next time I need to change a headlight bulb in the G35 Ill be sure and give you a call [bang] that will make up for it!!!!

Yeah, what diabolical bastard came up with today's headlights? Used to be able to go into a auto parts store and for about $5-$10 bucks you either got a round one or a rectangular one... that was it. Undo a couple of screws, swap them out, aim the headlights at the garage door and readjust as needed. Wasn't even a full one beer job. Now you can spend hundreds, have to buy from the dealership, probably have to get their service dept. to do it since it's now a three hour job and the front of the car has to be removed. >:( And do you really see any better at night than you used to? :P

I saw one of those about 2 weeks ago at a gas station beside TMS.  Same color, looked really cool

Everything's done. The only tell-tale is the tank is still scratched. I have a painter willing to help me out, but I'm going to have to ship the sucker pretty soon. May not get it done in time.

Let us know if you need help with anything [thumbsup]

Is Sarah going with you? Are you sure she doesn't want to stay here??

Do the Lollie Bombs need a new manager?!?!?!?!?

She's more ready than I am. She's done with Dallas.

And yes, actually, the Lollies DO need a new manager.  ;D
