Thought I would Share

Hi pat,
thank you for the message. we r all doing pretty good, all holding our own. some days are rougher than others, but we all call each other when we are having those days and we seem to bring each other up with a story of some sort and we r then laughing.
my brother, and a few buddies drove down a few weeks back and brought the motorhome up here. they had a few minor issues, but overall the trip went pretty well. now we r trying to figure out what to do with it from here. we tossed around the idea of parking it at a place around here, that my dad used to stay at when he would come up, it is a seasonal type of place and i think he would be very happy if we took it there and enjoyed it with our families. the motor home definately needs some work.....but i think in the long run, it would be worth the time, effort and money.
there has been a few times i have gone onto the truck forum site and am unsure where to look to find any of you, or to find any recent conversations among all of you who knew my dad.
so on behalf of myself, justin and kristin, please, please send our thank you to all of you in the forum!!!! i wish i was a bit more computer savy as my dad was to figure out what everyone does on here.....gees he used to get so frustrated trying to walk me through stuff on the computer. he did have a lot of time on his hands to become a genius at many things, and also had the interest, i guess for me, my interest became the kids, and family life.
anyways.....hope you are doing well and thank you for the e mail!!
samantha:-)

Hey Pat thanks for passing on the message from Sam. I hope they are holding up well.

Good morning everyone! It's my afternoon and I gotta take a shower as I stink, working on those damn trucks all day, swapping oil coolers just to have it fail again ..... Oh well, I'm gonna take a shower and veg for the rest of the day, and taking tomorrow off. I don't give a damn, I need a break!!

BTW- any of you guys use Isohunt, or The Pirate Bay to DL stuff?? I love it!

what is a .torrent file?

I had IRC a long time ago...it was nice cause it had voice chat.

Then AOL had a voice chat add on

now I think they have voice IMs.

it would be kewl if we could set up a voice chat somewhere.

I can hang with just about anyone and in a few minutes I'll be talkin just like I was there all my life, I talk with Jim and I'll have a Boston accent in no time, Talk with Tom and I'll be from Jersey. I've lived in So Cal so I've done the suffer stoner deal, Red neck, yup, hippy, been there done that.

only people that I can't stand is the preppy, corporate business uppity goody two shoes type, richy rich too good for you uptight SOB's don't speak to me turtle neck wearing don't bother me type.

sounds like a good place to raise a kid. try that down in LA or San Berdo, can you say drive by.

Best buddy owns the local Ford Dealership...I'll ask him. Tons of places to off-road. I used to go to a bunch of places one county over. There are forest service roads that lead into the mountains and all of the rock-crawling, mud-slinging, water-crossing fun you could want.
