Hey Ken - I'm still here.

I've just been spending a lot of time out in the shop these past few weeks. We completely emptied out the Bronco so I had room to work. First couple weekends were spent climbing around in the engine bay cleaning & painting. Then the next couple I sanded & primered the interior. Finally got to start painting yesterday. I'm thinking that today is a day of rest. I didn't know I could still twist & turn as much as I did to get to all the little nooks & crannies while pretzeling around the roll cage. Basically, I'm whooped.

Btw, how about them Rays.

Indeed...How 'bout them Rays??? They laid a good whoopin' on the Saawx this past weekend. It's a shame they are not better supported by the fans...there were about 25,000 fans disguised as empty seats on Friday night!!!

Glad to hear your Bronco is coming along!!!

I think the only sports teams of any kind that actually fill the stadium's are all college teams. Especially college football. It gets nuts around here when the Gators play anyone.

Steve & I laugh at the minimal turnout at pro games. Florida definately doesn't have the dedicated sports fans like they do up north.

Still going on about steroidball? It's a loser of a game. It appears all the players are juiced up...

Do they put an * in the record book denoting the record was obtained while shooting up 'roids? I guess they don't have to because IMO, the sport (and I use the word loosely) has no integrity.

I rather watch paint dry then watch steroidball.. Oh wait... Maybe since they are now cracking down on the juicers (that idiot from LA should have been suspended for 500, no 5000 games), maybe they can huff the paint we are watching dry.

Both teams lost... The were unable to "juice up" during the 7th inning stretch..

So the commish brought in 2 little league teams to play. The game was much more exciting. And the only thing they were on was a caffeine high from drinking Coke.. No... No... not the kind the majors shove up their noses...

The after game interviews kinda sucked. Most of the kids wanted to be like there major league "loser heroes". When it was explained they would have to shoot up 'roids, they said "well if that's what it takes to play in the majors they would do it."

It's a sad day when "shooting up" is the only way to make it into a sport..

Baseball needs a couple of things:

A drug policy that works, and a salary cap. These drug abusing idiots make waaayyyyy too much money for what they do.

They need to be more like football players. They don't do drugs, they just abuse or kill their wives. Or get involved in a drive by. You the usual, harmless stuff..

Where's our chapter leader? I hope he's not a steroidball fan!

Nobody seems to know where our Chapter Leader is. Don't know if he's alright or not. He hasn't posted or even been online since he posted in his welcome thread back on 3/17/09 ????? As far as I know, no one has heard from him.

Sure hope he's alright.

Oh no!!! Not again!! Well... Might as well open up the nomimation thread for another 3 months so we can get another leader... But at the rate they disappear, I don't think anyone will step up..

It's kinda like that curse of the mummy thing... Become the Florida chapter leader... then you are never heard from again!
