A Nerf bazooka blaster and a basketball indoor game: for playing with my kids.
For the Corvette; a new throttle cable, a 73-74 NCRS Judging Manual, and a Corvette Book- Birthplace of Legends.

I got a C in math and an A in the lab...go figure...my parents where not happy either, but Im hiding it until tomarrow...Plus I did pretty good on the SAT's(for the first time taking it), I got just under an 1100, so they should be cool with my math grades
I hate math. I got over 1200 on the SAT and 29 on the ACT.

a 1200. wow. Im not that smart. :crazy: Im what i like to call "smart enough"...Im all about the bare minimums. :jester

I've never failed anything (knock on wood), but my little GPA thing has never been over 3.0.....It doesn't need to be. :jester Plus in my major(architecture), its about what you can do, not a score on some tests. And thats how I'm getting into a university next fall. The school liked what I could do. I don't see a point in being an overacheiver when you see no rewards. :conehead

EDIT: Math is what got my SAT score up that high...its that english verbal poopie I can't do very well. :nono:

This year we celebrated Christmas at my sister and Brother-in-laws house. Still no snow so I drove the Vette.
Out of all the stuff I received I think my favorite is the 1/24 scale 1968 L88 Vette in bright yellow...color matches my '75 perfect. It was from my niece who is about 15 years old. She was afraid I wouldn't like it because it was
the wrong year. :) After spending 20 minutes examining every detail and opening and closing the doors and hood a
dozen times I pretty sure she was convinced I like it.


Among other things I got this nifty little keyboard to hook up to my Sega Dreamcast video game console.
While it will never replace the PC, it's nice kinda nice to sit back in my favorite chair in the living room and
browse the Corvetteforum on a huge '27 TV. Hopefully my message will turn out ok...the browser that came with
system didn't like this forum, so I had to download another browser from Japan. Trying to figure out what all these squiggly symbols mean is a pain! :D
