Well, I can say tonight turned into the standard issue Halloween night. Was fine till people get out on the roads and get stupid.
Then the system crashing.....oh that helped.

Kermit, what part of Illinois are you from? I am from Murphysboro, which is about 45 miles north of Cape Girardeau, MO and about 15 miles from the Mississippi River. Lived here all of my life and I work in the Power Plant at Southern Illinois Univeristy at Carbondale.

Mke, I saw in another post you'd rather have a fleet of Mustangs. Have any of you fellers seen the new Mustang? WOW!!!

I saw that and had the same head snap and turn reaction as when you see a hot chick walking down the street, plus the drool and slack jaw syndrome for a few minutes. My F-150 felt jealous for a little while.
