I will tonight. Right now I'm leaving to go for my post-operative check-up on my surgery.

Wow so much has happened since my last post. Where should I start.

What to buy-
I think I'll go with a variety of Option 2. I'll get all the MGW engine pieces but not the cup holder bezel I'll have to hold till I see it in person. (Bill I know you have one but it's chrome.)
So that mean's I have $60 left over. Mats or Armrest?

Saleen window thingies-Was not seriously considering just asking for opinions.

Anniversary-

Thanks all.

Bill- "I guess you can call it an investment"

Tom- "Our money" comment- Obiviously it's our money but it's $150 that became "my" money.

Mach1 shaker emblem-
Tom it looks great it's just like I said before I don't like that support being there but it's not your fault it is. So enjoy your new mod. FYI don't ask people you pay to do your lawn what they think of something you did.

"Thanks! And welcome from Iraq!
+1
See, Leo, that's how it's done! Come back and chime in any time, Steve! Make it a daily stopping point... you'll have to check back at least daily to keep up! But you might be on a pretty tight schedule over there?
Let's ask Leo how busy he was over there."

+2 Be Safe your almoat home. I know you have one of those day counters on your work computer that probably says "I'm leaving on a jet plane" right about now.

I worked 12-14 hour days 7 days a week for 9 months. There was some Sundays where I'd were only an 8 hour day. Other than that no days off. For the most part everyone out has a similar schedule. I'm just glad I had a deskjob.

Bill-Please call Tom's wife that would be hillarious.

If I missed anything I'll make another post.

Good luck on that. Hopefully he says "Tom go use your tunes now."

Not chrome, I have the brushed one.
Only MGW interior pieces I have chromed are the AC ***** and 12V plug.

I already called her (left a voice message) and ratted Tom out.

Tom, I like your Mach 1 thingie. It's really cool. I like it "stealth".

Speaking of Saleen, a yellow Saleen convertible caught my eye the other day and made me come back to the office and log on to find out what they look like in the 05/06. I kinda like it on the 'vert. hmmmmm

what are you implying?

Leo - congrats on that 4 year anniversary! We are at 8.5 right now. Time flies. That reminds me, we've got tickets to Blue Man Group this Sunday night - taking Katie for her first time. We've seen them twice in Vegas and love them.

Oh, and speaking of Vegas, we saw Ka when we were there a couple of weeks ago. If you ever get to Vegas, this is a Must-See! Also saw the Bodies exhibition. Kinda weird morbid curiosity kind of thing.

I still haven't watched Lost this week

Speaking of backs, Mike, how's YOUR back?

Tom's been gone (or logged off) for 6 hours... Hope he's okay for the show tomorrow.

Get some cool mats. But once you get them, throw some cheapo black towels over them to protect the embroidery from dirt and grime... for carshows ya know.

I'm back... and found out that I have to go for another MRI this coming Wednesday. He said it could be a number of things, but he doesn't want to guess... the MRI will get to the bottom of it. I may be having steriod injections, too, Mike!

I drove the truck (also stick) and it wasn't that bad. I may have to let Dave drive the '89 tomorrow because of the stiffer clutch. We are stopping for gas/ice/water after driving for a few miles. That will be enough to tell me how the drive will be.

I'm going to bed early (for me) because I have to leave early in the morning for The Big Top Flea Market in Tampa. Dave and I are meeting up with 8 other TMS members there before all driving to MOSI together.

Daryl, I'll get those shots in the sun tomorrow.

Just got back from seeing "The Marine" it's ok if you just want to see your typical action movie. Well I'm off to the mall now.

Tom-Good luck at the show tomorrow. Don't come back without a trophy.

Thanks! I hope to bring back two "golds", whether they be trophies or plaques. But then somebody told me they didn't think every car was judged, so I won't know how this all works until I'm there.

As far as shows at Vegas, we went to Star Trek: The Experience, and to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum where, of course, I touched every actress's breasts and butt:

Attachment 11696 I can't believe she just stood there and let me do that!

I also played a hole with Tiger and tried to slam dunk with Shaq:

Attachment 11700 Attachment 11701 No way was I reachin' that!

I also tried to win this for 5 cents:

Attachment 11697 Attachment 11698 Nice $3000 "Market Value Adjustment"!

And here's the Blue Man Group at the Luxor:

Attachment 11699

I almost forgot, my wife listened to her message from Bill and had a good laugh!

As you can probably tell, I went to bed too early, so now I'm up too early. Oh well... my next reply won't be until at least after 5pm tonight.

Another thing I wanted to add (before the car show so nobody thought it was because of negative comments), is that Dave (the guy driving the '06 today) and I were looking at the Mach 1 emblem. We both think it wouldn't look half bad chrome. I know I don't have that theme going, but it would add to the few other things on the car: Pony emblem on the grill, polished rings around my rims, rear emblem, exhaust tips. The thing is, since I really do like the idea of that emblem, maybe I should show it off more? Anyway, I'll get all the TMS members' opinions and let you know what they think, and you guys all give me your opinions, too!
