Good Morning Gurus!
Back at work today, with a bunch of stuff to catch up on. Missing yesterday was not a good thing. So I'm off to the grind! How's everybody doing today? Weekend plans? I have tickets to see Disney's Finding Nemo on Ice. uh....w00t, I guess... My daughter's Junior prom is tonight. She doesn't have a date, but she and a couple friends are gonna go have fun. I'm a little nervous, but she's got a good head on her shoulders. I'm not supposed to expect her in until 3:30 am. Wonder if I'll sleep at all.... |

oh, gee... just think about your prom and you will turn into a nervous wreck. At the same time, you survived it... and I am sure you have enbued her with your instincts, so, all is well.
Let the girl have some fun. |

My sister's 12 years older than me, and always got stuck babysitting me. She was pretty sure she was gonna have to drag me to prom - LMAO!
Meanwhile, I'm high from snorting Brake-Kleen. Good lawd, I'd forgotten what a dirty job brake work is. The rears are just about done, gonna start on the fronts tonight. I want to finish up tomorrow so we can drive the Vette to a friend's party. |

Don't worry, I won't keep her out too late. I'm responsible. J/K. I hope she has a good time with her friends. Anything else new and exciting with anyone? I have a friend at work who has been bit by the corvette bug after seeing mine last year. Spring is here and he's asked me to help him find a C3. I'm no C3 expert, but I'm always willing to learn more! Any good advice from anyone? Is there a good C3 guide like Bogus' C4 guide? Hope everyone has a good day! Matthew |

I never went to any proms. Nobody asked me, and I was too shy to ask anyone. So there.
Honestly, I'm not really worried about her, as far as what she'll do. I'm more worried about her being in a car late at night with all the drunken high-schoolers bouncing around. |

Good mornin'!
I'm watching Magnum. It's the one where TC gets shot down and goes into a coma - I've never seen this one. Higgins also gets shot when he gets close on the trail. And there's a guy pretending to be TC's brother. Magnum looks like he's found some evidence while scuba diving, and the fake brother has just pulled a knife on him. Oh, the drama! |

Mental Health day for me.
I'm finally going to work on my rear suspension today. For most of you that don't know (me), I'm working on my 1971 Chevelle Convertible. I put in a very trick "Pro Touring" suspension/brakes up front a few months ago, but the rear coilovers have been sitting in the trunk ever since. I hope to finish this weekend, hopefully with time to spare to go fishing! Cheers everyone! |

Andy, I have to disagree. This is a much different world. Until you have fathered children you'll never understand the reasonings...... Junior Prom......Home at 1:00 AM. Period. Shes still in your charge until the 18th birthday. |

Well, since I now have to wait my turn on the CNC Milling Machine, here's some I had posted over on the Chevelle board... Before: This was a few months ago with stock suspension.  Current: This is now with: SC&C SC-AFX package, SC&C/SPC new LCAs, Alston/Chassisworks front coilovers, and Baer front and rear discs installed.       Obviously, Ive also added a new hood, and if you peek closely you can spot the electric cut-outs. Also recently added, but not visible: Flowmaster 3 exhaust (header to tailpipe) w/ Pypes 3 oval stainless tips, Hydratech Hydroboost. Still in boxes in the garage: Classic Auto Air system, Alston/Chassisworks rear coilovers, Currie rear arms. After I get all the rest of my goodies in, I get to tear the car down to send her in for paint. Wish me luck! Cheers- Nelson V. |

I love Rockford Files too. Since I'm off on Fridays, if I'm home, I like to take advantage of one of our local channels. It used to be: 1:00: Quincy, ME 2:00: Hawaii 5-0 3:00: Rockford Files 4:00: Mission Impossible They've replaced Rockford with Magnum which I didn't like the change cuz I can get Magnum on other channels, and they don't do MI anymore. But I can still MI on another channel at 5p, something called American Life Channel or something like that. I'm watching 5-0 right now. |
