WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!
A round of frosty beverages in your honor!!!!
Its a great feeling isn't it? pretty soon your jaws will be hurting from all the grinning.
Everytime the memory pops up in your head from now on you will get the same silly grin on your face (if your married and this happens with your wife around, just tell her you were thinking about her.....its just easier that way and it benefits everyone involved..............LOL)

Bobby, Great advice, the other half thinks I'm a nut.

There isn't anything quite like a maiden voyage (at least in the truck world) makes all the skinned knuckles and associated blood loss worth it. Congratulations
