Good Morning CG's!
Well, I am here to lead the charge into Tuesday  How is everyone doing so far? Not a whole lot going on here. Weather is supposed to be warm today, so that's a plus, but rain later tonight isn't making me happy. Anyone get their stimulus check yet? I'm still waiting for mine, but it's direct deposit so I guess I'll get it soon? It'll be some "mad money" and maybe we'll blow a little. Anything else new and exciting? Post up! Hope everyone has a great day. Matthew |

Good morning. I haven't been online too much lately, been a little busy.
It's going to be a sad day here I think, as we are going to have to put our black lab down. She is very old, and been a part of our family. Strange how the puppies your kids beg for become your dogs once they leave home and you get so attached to them. Oh, still looking for my stimulus check also. If they would give me a bigger one, I could help out the economy even more, cause I think I spent mine already  |

Sorry to hear about the dog. They do become a big part of the family. My family jokes that our dog is my girlfriend. It's a shame our dogs don't last as long as we do.
My day started with a 4 AM trouble call. Everything's ok now. But I'm short on sleep, crankier than usual, and wishing I was out of here! No stimulus check, I don't get mine until July, and that will help pay for the family vacation this year. A week in Ocean Isle NC. |

Good Morning Gurus!
Sorry to hear about the pup. :sad5: My stimulus check is third from the end on the paper check side. So Maybe late June or maybe July. I've heard they moved the dates up a little. Other than that, I've got a pretty busy day, so I better get to it. Have a super day, Gurus! |

Hey Greg sorry to hear about your pup. :sad7: :sad7:
I'm not sure if I get a stimulus check or not living out of the country. From the criteria I guess all you have to do is file taxes with the IRS and I do that. If so Mine will also be one of the last manual checks they do. Sometime in July. We'll see. Not much else going on. Leave tomorrow for Edmonton Ab to deliver Friday. Looks like some rain out through Wisconsin and in to Minnesota and N.D. Off now to baby sit the grandson for the afternoon. Have a good day Guys. Gary |

Sorry to hear about your dog, I know how tough that is.  No stimulus check for us - maybe my son will take us out to dinner with his :-P It's 70 and sunny, and I keep thinking I should just boogie out of the office and take the top off of the car........ |

Time to pay some bills. She'll be much happier, you'll get more, and the funds will be available again later on. |

Compromise. Buy the shocks, do them yourself. Even with Bilstiens, that's less than $300. KYBs can be had for a little over $100. Maybe get her to let you get the one piece of weather strip that's the most in need. Pay bills with the rest. You put the lion's share toward the bills, and you get something for the Vette. Everybody's happy. |

Geez, not even my dog and I find it hard to swallow. Put ours down almost 10 years ago and I can't bring myself to get another just yet. That day will come again for both of us though my friend. Once you've had a good dog in your life, you will eventually will get another. I know I will someday.
No Government giveaway in my account yet either. At the rate gas prices are climbing though, it will probably end up in the gas tank, Although getting my rear installed would be nice as I never seem to find the time! Like you guys though, the wife seems to have different designs for it LOL! Have a better day Folks, Signed , me |

Rolla - sorry to hear about the doggie. We've put a couple down over the years and it's a tough go. If you're anything like my fam, you won't be able to go too long without a new little puppy.
Skirlin - bills are overrated. Buy some shocks  I am about to hit the weights and head off to work. Take care everyeone! Matthew |

Sorry to hear about your dog. We had to put down one of our dogs around Christmas time.
Another busy day at work. Hope everyone is doing well. My stimulus check is supposed to be here by Friday. I wish United Nuclear would get there hydrogen project done and bring it to market. I would gladly put the check towards it if it were to seem worthwhile. |
