yea good times always had at the dragon, other than breaking something, the only hard part about fixing the sway bar is finding an endlink nut to fit it, going to take the other side off and try to match it up should be easy enough i hope

You have school on Sunday afternoon. Tough school you are attending. If you get a break this Sunday we will be meeting up at 1 at the Airport Hilton.

Go here for ride details.

about a half an hour, not too bad, oh love the combat quote there, made me think of this

Commander Anderson: Have you ever been in a combat situation before?
Stanley Goodspeed: Define combat, sir.
Commander Anderson: Shep?
Lt. Shephard: An incursion underwater to re-take an impregnable fortress held by an elite team of U.S. Marines, in possession of eighty-one hostages and fifteen guided rockets loaded with V.X. poison gas!
Stanley Goodspeed: Oh. In that case, no sir. Excuse me...

that would be me if i had to do what you guys do, thanks to all the soldiers for everything
