You missed that for some reason Cory is a Polaris fanatic but he no sooner confesses to that and his wife starts to punish him.
Hmm, new Chapter Leader, eh? Why did Tom step down?

Nothing wrong with chains and whips... Er...

I decided to talk to my eye doctor and I got a prescription for window tint. Now it is all legal, not that I really care.

The backs metered at 19% and the fronts now meter at 29%. Just perfect and looks great.

Oh and it was a K&N FIPK that was on it when I bought it.

At least a '06 or '07 will have most of the bugs worked out. I just hope I can find a decent 7.3L when I buy.
Bah, who wants a ratty old 7.3? The 06 and 07 6.0s > 7.3.

Good evening guys.

Just got in from working on the truck. Started out with just pulling the LF and re greasing the slide pins, they were due, and then decided to rotate tires. Removed the RR and found almost no brake pads left. Luckily I had all the parts to replace everything on that particular wheel, caliper included.

That sounds like a better plan to me too Chris.

Just got back from a relatively quick trip to Wally World, Rainbow, and Kohls. Amazing! I was even with Lynn.

Hi Jay.

Yeah, it was.At least a couple hours of it anyway.

Still not feeling the best though, so it wasn't something that I wanted to do. It needed to be done.

Hey Chris!! Gotcha on the window tint. Nice thing out here you don't have to worry about being checked on that stuff too much. Glad you got that K&N off there if it is as bad on there as it is on the 7.3.

Hey Mike! Sounds like you got a lot done so that must mean you are feeling better.
