Me too, Brent. Me too. I keep having to dry my eyes, though. I'm trying to man-up & not be too sappy, since like you all said, he wouldn't want it that way. It's kind of tough though....

Yeah he loved that little Dub of his! I gotta admit I always cracked up when he got into talking about Honda too! I sometimes would make a Honda comment just to see him reply to it haha.

You would have loved it Scott, Mark hated hondas with a passion, and the way he went on about it, was not only humorous, but you could he was really passionate about how much he hated them!
