Well, my trip is a go, just delayed a couple hours. Should be leaving any minute when my ride gets here.
However, I've got an idea for the OT, but not sure if it would solve the issue...even though I'm not 100% sure what it is. Okay, here's my idea: create an Off Topic sub-forum inside of our 7.3 Tech section. In there, we could post whatever we wanted, different threads and such, but it would all be OT and pretty much just accessed by the 7.3 folks. Could that sub-forum be excluded from searches as well...I don't know, but possibly. I've seen sub-sub-forums on other sites that use vBulliten, so I would think it's at least possible. Basically, make a GNA sub-section in the 7.3 Tech area for us to have our "campfire" and different "family" discussions. What do you all think?

That's a beautiful pic, Scott!! They coming home today??
I'm just sitting at Friday's at the DFW airport waiting on my flight to board and thought I'd check on the OT while I waited for my food to get here...

That we do Robbie. Not a lot to post on up there right now, problem-wise.
Well for all of you complaining about the cold, you aren't alone. Its everywhere. The only places not suffering are the Carolinas, Florida, and Georgia.

I liked the pic of the wee one Scott. He looks very aware for a brand new baby.

Finally caught up from yesterday.
Lisa, good luck with the job hunting.
Scott, lovely little bundle you have there!
Pete, I agree. You seem much older. It does give the rest of us hope with what we see out of the younger gen on the forum.
Great pics Mark.

No white Christmas for me

Recieved the following from a friend of mine. He owns a shop that does lifts and stuff down in Victoria TX.....
I got this in an email, and thought yall would enjoy it....
This guy ran over a mattress and decided to keep going. The ensuing jumble finally whipped around enough to put a tear in the gas tank, the subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought this vehicle to its knees.
It had still managed to drive 30 more miles with a 60 lb tangle wrapped around the driveshaft.
This genius complained that the vehicle had a "shimmy" when driving at high speeds.
See attached for what the dealership found..............
