Yeah I'M ok :D I think right now the car's swearing at ME though :lol:
I was talkin on the phone and leaning on it like a dummy and it goes ssssssCRACK. I tried to re-align the new crack and it cut about a 1/4 inch slice into my pointer finger :cuss
I then placed the top in the shed and went to the convenience store and bought: 2 rolls of duct tape, 1 tube of neosporin, and 1 icecream sandwitch :D :yesnod: The top is now 'thouroughly taped' to say the least and I'm not quite done, but it'll do for tomorrow incase it rains...

Sheesh the fun never ends :D

:seeya

good to hear you're fine.

that's the nice thing about leather seats... bleed all over 'em, and all you have to do it just wipe it off! :D
