Believe it or not only one year in 1st grade. My grade school was small enough though that I didn't move to a different room or teacher till 5th grade.

Happy Birthday Corvette!

I don't know about everyone else but I get used to the sound and feel of my cars at different speeds. Just about every time I get new tires I looked at the speedometer and I'm doing 10-15 MPH more than I thought.

A friend of mine told his wife he wasn't ready to retire but he was thinking about working from home, to which his wife replied, "Oh no, I married you 'for better or worse', not for lunch!"

you are not the only one with gray skies and precipitation falling from the clouds H1.............. supposed to be that way here through Friday evening, then possible thunderstorms Saturday afternoon.......

hope not, as Saturday is the day for me at the Battle Creek Speedfest.......

due to drive time there, I will be in the PM group, and hope to get between 4 to 6 passes.............

paid for 1 day, the event runs from Friday through Monday........... sorry, baser salary here.....

besides, I need to bring it back in one piece, and start to get not only the car, but everything else situated for the trip to SD................

Hey, omike, have you been here before? Don't recall the name. Settle in, tell us you have a GS (or want one) and let the good times roll!
