I would be disappointed if you guys didn't make jokes. Laughter is the best medicine, and I have very thick skin.

My GP says I should eat nothing but kale and beet juice for the inflammation. Just kill me now. I'm a meat and potatoes guy.

Bald or flat, a nail doesn't care, unless you're so bald a thumb tack would do you in.

Btw, OFT working out for you?

Careful with that kale intake. It can transform you.

All 3 this year have been rocks...

OFT is ok, haven't done much driving since I flashed, too much driving the truck. Went to put on the UEL header sitting in the garage, but then decided I was too lazy to do it. Planning on tweaking the Stg1 tune a little bit, really glad I have the ability to quiet down cold starts

Back in 07, we spent about a week in Jasper and Banff National Parks, driving around in our then new Miata.

Beautiful scenery!

Dunno, some of them look damn sharp. The good news is, because of all the flats recently, I've got the tire change down to like 15 minutes.
