Mentioned everybody except the farmers... way to go, Terry... sheesh, no bloody respect. Not even from the pizza delivery guy!

Seriously, congrats on hitting the half-ten K mark.

The wealth of information here is staggering. Congratulations Ken on a site well built.

The number of lunatics I've found here is also staggering. We've got a horse molester, a preacher of the Flying Spaghetti Monster faith, a tax accountant who spends his free time serving as Mayor of a make-believe neighborhood founded by the above mentioned horse molester, an official spanker who is currently accepting applications to become her latest "slave boy", a contractor in California who truly believes that if he licks that window just one more time, it will come clean, a chef in Missouri who actively spent more dollars than I will earn this year in an effort to blow up his own 6.0 (he succeeded....), more than a few truckers making America's roads safer by screwing around on FTE rather than driving under the influence of some of the incredible stupidity we come up with, one absolutely insane farmer, and of course, lots and lots of mechanics, gearheads, and Ford lovers in general.

What a great bunch. I'm proud to be a part.

Thanks all!

Oh sure, try and kiss up now...

Besides, the meds are helping a lot with the "insane" part... I picked up a bottle of 'em just this morning.

The clerk gave me that same look again...
