Just ribbin' you old timers. I can say that without you guys, we would be missing some of the best experience, knowledge and advice. I enjoy hanging around you guys and learning all I can from you. I remember as a kid hanging out with my grandpap and all his friends at the garage.
There's nothing that can come close to your unselfish guidance to all of us. Thanks!:wink:

I love the fact that the worst you ever see on here is us teasing each other about slippers. I lurked a couple times on the Pirate sight a few times-----never seen so many internet A-holes and tough talking losers in my life.
It is amazing on this site that such a wide variety of people, over such a large geographic area seem to have the exact same taste in so many areas of there life.
