Yes, but, he's only Hendrix if he can make me hit the high notes.

There is a difference between old and wore out same as people
Good point Ray, didn't think to look at it that way. In my mind old = wore out. If I see a truck that is 15 years old and has 10,000 miles on it, to me its a new truck.

No. Nothing concrete yet. I have a hard enough time setting something that is a month away.

My plan is, by next Spring/Summer.

You?

Hopefully not later than that. I hope I can score a job out there before that; the sooner the better. Although... moving in winter could be kinda ugly, or a complete breeze.

Yeah..what am I, seven years your elder? I'll be 30 before ya know it. Funny thing is, I don't feel any older than 20.

And, I'm flattered.
I was thinking about that, but It seems like such a hassle. Ill just stick with my internet friends on FTE

Yup, almost exactly 7 years older. If Im not mistaken your birthday is the 4th? mines the 11th. Thats good you only feel 20, since Im only 20. I feel older if that helps any lol

drama sucks, I dont feel like explaining the people on there to her. The other thing is you know how it pulls from your email list? It pulled half my customers too!!! So, I have to behave. Guess I cant abandon the OT, I need some form of anonymity to express myself!!!
Hendrix analogy was the best I've seen! I'm still laughing at that one!
Haha, I bet your wife is super happy about that.

I was on a role yesterday what can I say...

You can try to hit the high notes, cant make any promises you'll be able to mutter any audible sounds for a while though....

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd want to drive across Nebraska in winter...that seems to be the big stickler. North Platte got 17" of snow a few weekends ago.

Popcorn. Movie Theatre butter, please. I'll make sure the guns are locked up, hand-to-hand combat only.

Wow. All of these lofty promises. I'm not sure I know what to do with myself.

My birthday is April 1st actually, very close. I still get carded, I guess that's worth somethin!

Yeah right now we're having issuse getting electricity to the pumps but both the High pressure and the sending unit pump work when hooked up to a battery. I guess we are going to rewire the oumps tomorrow since im going to get the wire and alligator clips today at work.

not recomended but the redneck fuel pump test, disconnect supply hose (redirect)crank eng and if fuel shoots 20+ ft pump is good. Shoots 5ft pump bad.
