Hmm...I wonder who might be first? 
That Clay fellow...gesh.
We'll need a detailed diagram/technical drawing of it in order to get a patent on it also. I'd be happy to help you there as well.

So I spoke with Lisa's evil twin today, Someone called the store today so as always I check the caller ID, the name pops up "Dyer, Lisa" and lists some out of state #. After a sec on me being surprised thinking that Lisa is calling me, I answer. The girl on the phone was asking for directions to the store, she even sounded just like Lisa.. and Im thinking " Lisa didnt say she was going on a trip anywhere...HMMM". So after that I had to go check my contacts in my phone to see if it was actually her...sadly it wasnt..
....
Nice hat BTW Lisa
And I even saw a younger guy driving a pink Jeep on my way home, So I think Petey and Lisa are playing some trick on me...
Thats the best part! haha

Not quite, Chris. I no longer have keys to Pinkie and Pinkie may cease to exist in under a year. Stupid C4C.
But I've been in the truck since end of July. I popped it into 120 cause I felt like rollin a little coal on the interstate on-ramp. Nobody behind me or in front of me so I mashed on it pretty good. Truck got up to 75 before I even realized I was going that quick.

Besides, Pete and I are both fairly deviant. Both of us together could come up with a better trick than that...

I knew you had your truck now too, I was just messing around. It was still kinda weird anyway..
Thats true, but I found it to be really strange today that both of those things happened.
When I win the lotto I plan on doing a nice little cross country tour, and even some of Canada, to meet everyone in our little brotherhood (and sisterhood)

Which reminds me I gotta get my tools out of Pinkie. I've still got some screwdrivers, a 1/2" drive set, and a bottle jack in there.

Yea Pinkie will be getting killed as soon as the dealership gets the check from the gov't because they don't want to release the new car w/o a check in hand.

They don't make parts for Jeeps of that vintage anymore so parts are worth decent money.

Pinkie's only a 95, but Chrysler doesn't anticipate their vehicles lasting that long apparently.

Speaking of clunkers, the man that works for me made the news when he bought his new Ranger.
He traded in a near perfect 1989 F-250 for it. It got it's rear suspension all twisted up a few months ago when a U-haul trailer that he was renting to move a car came off and jerked him all over the highway. He managed to get it straightened out, but not before the springs got spread out like a paper fan. It never drove right from then on and he decided to go for a new truck, rather than fixing it. There were some issues with coolant odors under the hood and a lot of looking for it, never finding the source, too.
