Ah well, at least you had some MAN time over the weekend, beating the brush with a high powered rifle slung over yer shoulder.
Me, on the other hand, had to schmooze with some new in-laws that I don't think I'm going to ever get comfy with.

Hey Steve,
Jack is 12 days post op. He's doing good. He likes to lay around so his rehab should go smoothly. But being he's 9 already, I can tell that it is not as easy for him as it was the last go around.
I'll tell him that you asked about him.

So I don't know if any of you guys are interested, but in the next couple of weeks i'm going to drop my truck off at spectre performance... They are going to install a full intake on my truck and run some dyno tests with it, and they are going to let me keep the intake as well, for free! I know there was a link up in I think the Super Duty forum, they are looking for other rigs to test, PM me and I can shoot you the email of the guy I've been talking to so you can see if they need your trucks too. Hell, I love free stuff, don't know about you... lol
