Ya I've been pretty tied up with opening our new store and then we found out that one of our daughters Teagan has Leukemia. So between work and family I have not had much time.

Sorry to here, Steve. My cousin Angela has been at our house and the hospital for the last month and a half. She was diagnosed with leukemia as well. It is no fun and form what i have seen, a VERY hard road. Hope your daughter does as well as my cuz. She has no more signs of the leukemia in her after 2 rounds of chemo.

Funny little story: I was at a stop light, and I looked over to my left and there's a newer 911 Carrera sitting in the other lane with an older gentleman sitting in it. We both looked at each other and nodded our heads, and he lipped "nice", I thought that was funny.

Awesome. It's nice to see some people can appreciate a car no matter the pedigree.

I just detailed my Z for the past 3 hours. I'm tired now. I'm still not happy with it because I found some spots that need work. Damn those lights in my garage.

It's well known that 90% of these people look down on our cars.

I don't think I've seen that commercial.

Good luck on the car, Greg.

Okay then. Get that nice check from the insurance yet?

You should see my front bumper lip. It looks like it's been driven. Oh, wait....

I'm going to attempt to take off the rear exhaust section today and see what's rattling. Maybe I can shake it out.
