LOL Which is just my luck. But even if it does happen, I won't be cranky for long, because we have a little project for his car this weekend. HID foglights came in today.

from an earlier post on those headlights HIDS I think someone called them, I really
myself dont mind them, but it's those gosh darn fog light's /driving lights that poeple
insist on having on, I dont know if poeple think there cool or what, but they need to turn them OFF there so irritating and uneeded when there's no FOG no HEAVY RAIN and
no SNOW, wish they would stop building the cars with them on. Sorry but thats kinda a sore subject for me anyhow.

Ought to be illegal, where's the state's ballot intiative saying those lights are dangerous to others... I put the high beams on when passing them on the road; can't compete with HID fogs but my headlights are 4' off the ground and blinds them too. And motorcycle highbeam on, only low beams are required, plus some of those morons tilt their headlight up a couple of inches higher than normal. I rode a big bike for 8-9 years, that krap isn't necessary.
Lol i1dery, guess it's a sore subject for both of us.

Before that on Guam and USS Kitty Hawk, after VAQ went to Japan, DIRSUP on eight boats for years out of Pearl Harbor, NAS Pensacola, GW-I, then SUBSCOL department head in Pearl again, etc etc, and ended up back here as CMC for the NSGA tenant on Whidbey until I retired.

Hey REXB
Im out of the navy now and been with boeing for 18 yrs, but ya when I was in it was the ^%#$$% kitty for awhile during the time I was at VF-124 in Marimar then went to
whidbey there off of the Danger Ranger. I loved the time I was in, one of the few
probably who accually had fun while in.
My wifes grand parents live down on I think it's called Lagoon Point.
