Could be teaching the kid how to plow so his old man doesn't have to do it anymore. It is supposed to be 39 degrees in the lowlands overnight in a couple days or something.

I went to cars and coffee, went to play golf cart polo, made some acquaintances, and then asked. I think i am seriously persuing purchasing the Testarossa. These cars are not holding their value, and are quite obtainable.

I have heard of it taking a couple months for banks to communicate when it comes to vehicles and liens. Hopefully it won't be much longer. I should have my "new" carburetor by wednesday according to UPS tracking.

That would be pretty fun Brendon, as long as you can figure out how to fix any problems that arise yourself, haha.
