Can you find that thread again, and post a link? It sounds quiet humorous.

Way too much fun for this early on a Sunday morning. bahhumbug

How would guys feel if you were RR's father and were reading this thread about your son with him asking for advice, from a trusting and supposedly well balanced group of PU truck owners ? You would probaly trade in your new Ford Superduty and start driving a Chevy eh ? .

I've heard of well balanced engines, tires and driveshafts etc., but well balanced owners?

This IS FTE, (not to be confused with the comedy channel.)

Could have fooled me , looks like thread full of comedians..

My inference to a well balanced person here does not mean a tight rope walker walker or someone driving on newly installed Firestone tires.. .

I dont think a person needs a degree in behavioural health, to grasp the concept of what being a well balanced person means.

Sorry horseman, I guess I did miss it. Usually a post with the word panties in it catches my eye.

Well, this does sound well, kinda, well, you know. But the first few responses to this thread STEERED the thread that way:

It's because you guys ASSUMED he was actually a she. I should have chimed in WAY early in this post and said that he was actually a he. Yes, I know HE is because I have emailed HIM before...a while ago. We haven't talked in a while though.

Why doesn't he email me anymore? Has he moved on?

Now I am gonna cry....

Anyways...back on topic. Just talk to him and see if you have similar interests. Go see a movie (comedy or action, not romance). Just my thoughts...
