Good Morning CGs!
Well I drove the beast yesterday and I will drive it again today. Felt good to get it out. Loves the cold weather. I will be sad to put it away soon.... Since the cold weather is upon us, here is a little winter humor I saw: As a trucker stops at a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you're losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again. She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!" Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street. At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door. The trucker lowers the window. Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!" When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light. When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde's car. He knocks on her window, and as she lowers it, he says "Hi, my name is Kevin, it's Winter in Michigan and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!" Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

Winus tyas!
Had a beautiful weekend here, and it looks like the decent weather should hold out for at least another week or so. Hope it continues for a while, as the way the Viqueens are going, it's going to be a long winter. Meanwhile, countdown to vacation begins. Have a good day, all! |

Morning guys...it was a pretty weekend here too. I got to enjoy it with #3 her hubby and family. They only get out this way once a year or so. After they left I worked in the shop. Rosie and I went for a bike ride and I did a little more in the shop (Garage door wide open) Beginning of a new quarter at school, we'll see what that brings.
Got to head that way. |

It's bad when I read what the word of the day means and still don't know what it means....
Perfect weather here also....I got my center console cover put on and it looks ok. After driving Toms new car that has a nice console cushion I wanted one and finally got it installed. I added some foam to mine to make it real nice......pics at noon..... Today I will hang around with some farmers and ride in a few combines. It is a good time to talk ag and try and sell things.... Another beautiful day in store looks like.....glad you got to drive the beast Matt....so the problem was the fuel..? Forget the Viqueens Brad go with the Gophers..... Have a safe day Guru's..... |

It's raining here now. This is giving me ideas though I have plenty to do inside the house and garage. Nap or work? Nap or work? My naps last over an hour. An hour to sleep and another hour to wake up from the nap. Right now nap is winning. I haven't taken a nap in over a month. |

Those look familiar, Marcus. They also look good. I like the idea of the red accents.
