However, you have nice weather over there, so you should be playing in the garage a lot. At least Tony'll have the "cold fingers hurt more" excuse soon. ;-) You don't have to live in a bubble just because someone else caught the flu. Make your decision on your ability to trust yourself. - NytWolf 15:49:05 12/17/06 I was previously a aviation mechanic and avionic technician and this car is harder to work on than Aircraft. - Hocuz77 03:04:56 02/28/06
