Default Out, FINALLY!!

Got the car out of the garage today. Yes; finally had a warm enough day to allow the car to breath, and move the fluids around. Only one problem, the wife came along, and I had to keep the speed under 75. What a drag! My wife is like an alarm clock, as soon as I go over 75, she goes off. If the weather is nice tomorrow, watch out.

I hear you all have some beautiful weather headed your way (up in the NorthEast)... don't hesitate to take her out for an afternoon stroll. I took mine out... with the hole in the door and mismatched wheels... got busted for getting pics of my nice smoke show... in a church parking lot... I'm gonna burn in hell ain't I?

Try this... whenever she starts talking, you start snoring. They love it when you do that!
