If any of you southerners know of any good job openings in the plastics business...let me know. How nice it would be to live somewhere I could drive my Vette year round and maybe even have some curvy roads to drive it on.

It would probably be against forum rules for me to actually say how I feel about winter in the north.
Damn,I had my car out a little late last night and felt guilty because it had a little bit of dew on it when I pulled it back into the garage.

I have a lot to fix on my car. Weatherstripping, replacing carpets, fixing some of the trim, etc.

When my car is stored for the winter I try to replace a few stock parts that might go bad eventually just because of their age. I'm in no big rush doing it because I have at least 6 months to get it done. It always seems easier that way.

I've tried. I really have. I've resisted the urge to post. With every ounce of fortitude I can muster. I've tried to be sympathetic to my northern bretheren....particularly a certain feline that hails from the great white north.

But alas, all of my efforts have proven futile. Here I am.

It was 76 today. I took the Vette to work.

The End
