YYAAAAYYYY!!! I found 1st!!

Okay, there's really no point at all to this thread except my senseless joy at seeing "1st gear" on all my posts now instead of "nuetral" My mini is still on the boat somewhere in the Atlantic and is scheduled to hit NY shores this sunday. still dunno when Ill see her but im getting closer :smile: :smile: :smile: . Anyway, you all can go back to your lives now im done rambling.

I can't remember how many posts that I have now - but I would NEVER just post some fluff to bump my numbers. . .
