"I voluntarily took 60 days off from OT"
January 2001...Sold my IROC-Z Camaro and bought my first Vette (99 Coupe) at age 43. (still have it)
Bought my 2nd Vette (leftover new 02 Vert) in Nov 2002 at age 45.
Bought my LS2 powered Vette "pickup truck" in Dec 2006 at age 49..(still have it)
Feb 2008, I was 50 years old...Sold the silver 02 Vert and bought a triple black 99 Vert for $10K less..(still have it)
That $10K made buying my most recent Vette (07 C6Z) the same month much less painful...(and YES, I still have it)...It will undoubtedly be my last Vette purchase...Wifey INSISTS!!!

I'm glad i put such a large down payment on my car -- economy is tough and lost my job, thanks to savings though I've been able to float for a while, things are slowly picking back up but it's still not pretty at all.

....The X went off the pill in an attempt to trap me in our doomed marriage...If a relationship isnt strong enough to stand on it's own two feet why in the HELL does someone think throwing a kid into the mix will make things better???...It doesnt, and it didnt...and YEP, I got snipped shortly after that......That was 20 years ago now..Cant cry over spilled milk..
